Tasting Notes
A wonderfully light, aromatic sparkling with fresh pear, peach blossom, hints of green apple and orange zest. The fresh-fruit and floral character carries through to the palate with a delicate sweetness that is well-balanced by crisp, vibrant acidity. Serve as an aperitif or pair with a wide range of fine cheeses, Asian-inspired dishes, in addition to fish, shellfish, chicken and pork on their own or with cream sauces. Also delightful at the
end of a meal with fruit or rich, cream-based desserts.
Method
Bubbly White is an aromatic sparkling blend. Fruity and floral, this wine is brimming with quintessential Nova Scotian freshness. It is a blend of 35% Geisenheim-318, 30% Vidal, 15% Riesling, 15% Ortega, 5% Siegerrebe. Each variety making up this blend was handpicked and fermented separately in stainless steel. A base wine blend was created and transferred to pressure tank for secondary fermentation via Charmat Method, providing a delicate and persistent bubble. Given the desired aromatic style, lees contact time was kept short to preserve freshness and purity of primary fruit flavor.
