Cheers (889 views)
 Tasted by cucycling on 10/12/2022 & rated 89 points: Dry light and enjoyable, fine plentiful bubbles, great QPR. (746 views)
 Tasted by ChateauShiny on 6/7/2022 & rated 89 points: Not a detailed TN. Weak nose. Lots of fine bubbles, great mouthfeel, dry, spot on acidity. Nice balance of fruit and minerals on the palate. Decent saline and mineral driven finish.

I think the Mumm Napa Rose is a better entry level sparkling rose overall but this has a lower dosage. Both are great entry level CA Rose Bubbly. (1016 views)

 Tasted by brujazz on 2/6/2022 & rated 89 points: Excellent entry level Cali bubbly. Great QPR at $14. Light body. A hint of toast in the profile. Very dry for a rose. Definitely better than anything in its peer level. Makes you wish for the next step up. (757 views)

Rosé Blend

"Rosé blend" can mean a blend of just about any varietals since the designation comes from the resulting color of the wine.

USA

American wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.

California

2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson

Napa / Sonoma

SONOMA: The Yorkville Highlands AVA, approved in 1998, is located in the southwestern corner of Mendocino County, between Sonoma County's Alexander Valley to the South and Mendocino County!s Anderson Valley to the North. The region is 25 miles long, roughly in the shape of rectangle and bisected by Highway 128 which runs the length of the AVA. The region!s terrain is hilly and forested, with elevations ranging from 1,078 to 2,442 feet above sea level.
The distinguishing features of the Yorkville Highlands AVA are rocky soils with a high gravel content and the climate, which is cooler than Alexander Valley but warmer than Anderson Valley, and significantly cooler at night than the surrounding areas.

Carneros

Straddles the southern ends of Napa & Sonoma Counties.
