The Fifth Annual Largest Blind Tasting of American Sparkling Wine: Retail $13. Pinot Noir, Gamay, Zinfandel, Sangiovese. Almost a rosé in color with a lovely nose of strawberry and yeast. Really fruity on the palate with what seems like a touch of sweetness, but it works, at least for me. 91 Points
The Fourth Annual World’s Largest Blind Tasting of American Sparkling Wine; 12/20/2021-12/23/2021: Retail $13. Pinot Noir, Gamay, Zinfandel, Sangiovese. More of a rosé in the glass than a "white" with rich, ripe, sweet, red berry fruit notes in the glass. The palate is also quite fruity (those red berries), but also tart, a bit sweet, and nicely balanced. While short of a Whoa, this is really close to a Yowza; a wonderful wine.
Not bad for what it is. Rose color in glass, minerals and stone tastes. Didn’t have as many tiny bubbles as I like in my sparkling wines, but still ok. Had it with a desert toast went over well.

Went well with both pear salad and chicken fettuccine. Very enjoyable. Would buy again.
