The base wine for this beautiful sparkling Rose was Grenache picked at 19brix to retain acidity and brightness. The fruit was harvested by hand in half-ton boxes and delivered to the winery very cold. The fruit was then dumped immediately into the press and allowed to soak for 2 hours. After pressing the juice, it was inoculated with W15 yeast and kept at 50 degrees for its entire fermentation. Upon completion of primary fermentation the juice was transferred to a pressurized tank and a second fermentation was started. This is called the Charmat Method. After completion of the Charmat method the wine was filtered and bottled.

A celebration in a glass, this Sotto Voce Sparkling wine is a wonderful aperitif. It will pair well with shell fish and cream sauces as well as fruit and cheese
