Wine Review: This pinkish-coral colored sparkler from France initially displays lots of very tiny bubbles. It opens with a wet stone and strawberry like bouquet, On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, smooth and easy to drink. Its bubbles do dissipate quickly, but its flavors stick around nicely. Those flavors are a mineral influenced mild red plum with notes of watermelon and a hint of red cherry. The finish is dry and flavors linger nicely. This sparkling wine would pair well with shrimp cocktail. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Delicate peach core with seductive raspberry hints and fine exquisite bubbles. A first nose of fresh red fruit (raspberry, wild strawberry), giving way to a perfect balance between freshness, acidity and roundness. The notes of citrus (pomelo) and white flowers will allow you to serve this wine for all occasions. Serve with fresh sweet or savory appetizers. It can accompany smoked fish appetizers just as well as fruit-based desserts.
