More About Cruse Wine Co. Ricci Sparkling St. Laurent

A wonderfully unusual sparkling rosé from Cruse Wine Co. in California, made from St. Laurent grown in the Ricci Vineyard in Carneros. It's produced using the traditional method, with native fermentation and extended ageing on the lees, giving it the texture and complexity of fine sparkling wine while keeping the fruit incredibly vibrant. Michael Cruse is known for making some of California's most exciting sparkling wines, and this is a brilliant example of his lighter-touch approach.

Bright, energetic and beautifully dry, it combines crunchy red fruit with floral aromatics and a lovely mineral edge. Fine bubbles and crisp acidity keep everything fresh, while a subtle savoury note from the lees adds depth.

Meet the Producer, Cruse Wine Co.

Cruse Wine Co.

Style: Winery

Cruse Wine Co. feels like California wine after somebody opened all the windows and let fresh air back into the room. Founded by Michael Cruse in Petaluma, the winery became one of the most exciting names in modern Californian wine by focusing on freshness, balance and lesser-known grape varieties instead of simply making another gigantic Cabernet designed to emotionally intimidate steak.

Michael Cruse first became famous through Ultramarine, his cult California sparkling project, but Cruse Wine Co. gave him freedom to explore much broader territory. Valdiguié, Tannat, Carignan, St Laurent and other wonderfully unfashionable grapes all appear regularly, producing wines that feel vibrant, juicy and unapologetically Californian without becoming overripe caricatures.

The sparkling wines especially are brilliant. Pet-nats, traditional method bottlings and playful sparkling reds all show up with loads of energy and freshness. California sunshine translated into fizz, basically. The still wines meanwhile lean bright and fruit-driven with surprisingly low alcohol and loads of drinkability compared to the heavyweight Napa stereotype many people still picture automatically.

What makes Cruse especially refreshing is the sense of curiosity running through everything. These wines feel exploratory and alive rather than carefully engineered luxury products built for investment portfolios and aggressive tasting notes.

There’s also something very appealing about a Californian winery openly prioritising balance and joy over sheer power. The wines actually make you want another glass instead of a quiet lie down afterwards.

A surprisingly underrated quality in warm-climate winemaking sometimes.
