Almacita Brut Sparkling Rosé Valle de Uco, Chile NV

The Wine:

This hand harvested sparkling wine is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes from multiple vineyards within the Uco Valley. The nose is bursting with notes of strawberry, raspberry, rose petals, and fresh whipped cream that lead into a bright and fresh palate laced with red fruits and a touch of fresh baked bread. Tight bubbles, raspberry jam, and toasted almonds with fine chalky tannins round out this delicious wine.
