Tasting Notes

A blend of Pinot Noir and Merlot from estate-owned vineyards made by charmat method.

Intense pink color with vigorous, crystalline and dense perlage that creates a fragrant creamy rose-colored froth. There are scents of roses, wild strawberries and red currants on the nose. This sparkling wine is well-balanced, full-bodied, pleasantly acidic, and mellow on the palate.

It is wonderful as an aperitif but it also goes well with all dishes. It is a bold accompaniment either with savory appetizers or first courses with meat, or even for the more adventurous, with pizza! Enjoy well chilled.
