Raise a Glass for National Bubbly Day

2017 Blanc de Blanc
This bubbly is for people who enjoy wine with complex aromas and flavors. The complexity found in this dry wine results from extended time on the yeast and in the bottle. Aging “en tirage” allows a superb flavor known as “goût de champagne” to develop in the wine. Although this is a labor-intensive and therefore expensive process, it is the only means of achieving this flavor. Made with 100% Chardonnay, the Blanc de Blanc exhibits toasty aromas (think freshly toasted brioche bread) and subtle flavors of Meyer lemon, green apple, and Bartlett pear. This sparkling wine has the classic characteristics of a true Champagne produced in that region of France.

2018 Blushed
This sparkling wine was made from a blend of white and red grapes: Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Marquette. Like the Blanc de Blanc, the Blushed was made in the Traditional Champagne Method. With only .5% residual sugar, this bubbly rosé is dry and crisp. The fine bubbles make for a texture that is both exciting and refined. Flavors of red raspberries, Montmorency cherries, and lemon tart burst open on your palate. Enjoy this wine with cream-based dishes, soft, rich cheeses, and for a surprising twist, serve it with fried chicken!

Bedazzled
A balanced but unpretentious bubbly perfect for everyday celebrations, the flavor profile of the BeDazzled is brighter than most sparklers, which makes it beautifully refreshing. Fresh, crisp fruit flavors will dance on your palate, followed by a delightfully dry finish. The bubbles are delicate enough to keep this wine vibrant on the tongue, and the sweetness level is kept to a minimum to maintain its versatility with food.

2018 Sparkling Riesling
A dry wine produced with Riesling grapes, this sparkling wine possesses the classic Riesling flavors of apple and pears. Bolstered by the effervescence, this wine has a dazzling acidity that dances along your tastebuds. Hints of minerality make the finish on this bubbly crisp and clean, keeping your palate fresh and ready for sip after sip!
