Wine Reviews

Vivid light red. With a fresh aroma of sweet ripe strawberries, one expects sweetness on the palate, too. But it’s bone dry and deeply flavored of ripe berries, sour cherry, and even a hint of stone fruit. There’s good effervescence, a mineral backbone, a dry finish, and low alcohol, too!

Lightly ruby in color, this tangy sparkler offers a fine, raw silk–like texture, an underpinning of salinity and delicate notes of dried white cherry, Marcona almond, citrus and dried tarragon.

Refermented in the bottle, this lightly sparkling wine has aromas of red berry, violet, citrus and yeasty whiffs of bread dough. Mirroring the nose, the dry, tangy palate doles out juicy raspberry, grapefruit and a hint of ginger alongside crisp acidity.

Bright pale red. With a nose that evokes ripe red berries, the frizz ante Phermento offers more of the same along with red plum and cherry notes on the palate. It offers an abundance of fruit and medium effervescence but finishes bone dry. Sold with a crown cap.

Heady aromas of blueberry and wild cherry lead the nose on this delicious, lively wine. On the lightly sparkling palate, hints of botanical herb and white pepper accent raspberry compote, blueberry and lemon zest before a crisp dry finish.
