"Fresh, tangy wine with bright fresh berry/cherry flavours. Subtle sweetness amplifies fruit flavours and helps give a smoother texture. Quite a full-bodied style with appeal" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review

A distinctive Sparkling Rosé made from Riesling and Merlot grapes. The exceptional wine qualities that are intrinsic to these varieties have been blended together to provide an exciting sparkling wine. Light cherry/strawberry in colour, the nose is reminiscent of crushed wild red berries and juicy ripe melon. The palate bursts with summer fresh red stone fruits, hints of cherry, lime and lemon zest topped off with a cranberry twist. The sparkles give the wine a fresh lively uplift with a semi sweet finish, which is well balanced with excellent length.

Vines were trained from two to four canes on a vertical shoot positioned trellis. Balanced shoot thinning, leaf plucking and trimming were carried out to maintain a healthy canopy and ripening conditions. Grapes were picked from late March until late April. The Riesling grapes were harvested from vineyards with modest cropping levels in the cool of the evening, to help capture their freshness and aromatic strength. Specific yeasts were selected for fermentation to ensure the inherent fresh lemon and lime zest flavours were retained. The Merlot fruit was carefully harvested and fermented in stainless steel, followed by ageing for 10 months in predominantly older seasoned French oak barrels. This wine was carbonated at bottling at very low temperatures.

Food Pairing: A delightful glass of pink bubbles! Perfect to enjoy at the end of the week with some good friends and a plateful of tasty nibbles.

Closure: Zork - releasable and keeps wine fresh and drinkable for up to 1 week without going flat!
