Winery review: Our Premium Brut Sparkling is light in color and displays aromas of fresh green apple and nectarine with a hint of fresh baked bread. Crisp, intriguing fresh fruit reminiscent of succulent peach, sweet berries and pear linger on the palate, finishing with creamy and refreshing bubbles. This Sparkling can be paired with appetizers, seafood, sushi, as well as a wide range of desserts and cheeses.
My review: I thought this was a good sparkling wine. It reminded me a lot of a New Zealand style Sauvignon Blanc on the nose with themes of ammonia and fruits, like grape fruit, maybe some hints pear and peach, etc. It has a nice balance of carbonation and dryness in comparison to themes of some acidic fruits, grapefruit coming through the most. I think of this as more of a celebration wine meant to be drunk by itself and not necessarily with any food at all. I think some pungent cheeses and soft crackers (maybe even Italian bread) would probably go best with this sparkling wine.
I had this wine without food.
