Crisp, complex and compatible with food as well as lovely on its own, this Rosé sparkler is a treasure. The attractions begin with the wine’s sophisticated dusty pink color and move on to its beguiling razor-sharp aromas and multifaceted flavors, including strawberries, raspberries, cherries, and subtle stoniness. The grapes (86% Pinot Noir, 14% Chardonnay) were biodynamically farmed.
