America's first 100% Sauvignon Blanc sparkling wine.
This wine is made using the Charmat method in order to preserve the thiol aromas of grapefruit and passion fruit that are unique to Sauvignon Blanc.
It is popular in the United States due to its high quality, combining complexity, elegant fruitiness, and a refreshing finish.
The name of the cuvée comes from Agincourt, the site of the Hundred Years' War between England and France.
Founded in 2011 by cellar master and self-taught winemaker Chris Christensen, Bodkin Wines took the sparkling wine scene by storm in 2012 with America's first sparkling Sauvignon Blanc.
With one foot in wine science and the other in craftsmanship, Christensen's minimalist philosophy guides his signature style of high-acidity, low-alcohol wines.
These wines have received over 90 points or more in critics' reviews more than 20 times in the past eight years alone.
In addition to being named a "Winemaker to Watch" by Esther Mobley of the SF Chronicle in 2017, Christensen was also named to Wine Enthusiast magazine's 2020 Tasters Under 40 list.
As an African-American winemaker, Christensen is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in the wine industry through speaking engagements, podcasts and mentoring opportunities for aspiring winemakers and winery owners.
