 Tasted by The Drunken Cyclist on 3/2/2022 & rated 90 points: Retail $35. 50% Sangiovese, 50% Montepulciano (co-fermented). This is the latest addition, I believe, to Troon's line of Ancestral Method sparkling wines, and after tasting all three today, I believe this is my favorite. Reminiscent of a dry Lambrusco, this Fizzante has a radiant plum color and intense blackberry aromas. The palate is fruity and full, with a slight sparkle and a lasting finish. As the back label suggests, give me a pizza and a glass and a bit of time and I will be a happy boy.

 Tasted by isaacjamesbaker on 6/20/2021 & rated 88 points: Bunch of Samples: Juicy plum color. The aromas show bright raspberry and strawberries, with some wild herbs and spicy, floral tones. A light fizz on a chalky texture frame the palate, moderate acidity. Light and crushable but plenty of flavor, too. Raspberry and red apple peel mix with rose petal, white pepper, orange zest. A bright, crushable but spicy wine that is interesting and all sorts of fun. A co-fermented mix of Sangiovese and Montepulciano. (461 views)

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.
