Wine Review: This wine won our recent blind tasting of sparkling wines. It is a fun and appealing sparkler. This light yellow wine opens with a honey and apple bouquet with hints of lemon and petrol. On the palate, this wine is sweet, creamy, balanced, and rich. It displays honey, melon, and grape like flavors. The panel thought this wine could be a good aperitif or dessert wine. Cheers - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: "Frizzante is perfect for those who like a slightly sweeter sparkling wine. The Cuvée is lively, fruity, without being cloying. A creamy sparkling wine, with notes of apple, pear and candied apples, Frizzante is balanced, refreshing and very easy to drink. The wine is an excellent complement to spicy foods with Asian or Southwest influences as well as various egg dishes and desserts." - Rick Casqueiro, Winemaker
