Lightfoot & Wolfville Brut Rose (750ml)

The newest addition to Lightfoot & Wolfville’s traditional method sparkling program, the Brut Rosé has quickly cemented its place in the Lightfoot & Wolfville portfolio following the inaugural release in the spring of 2020, which went on to rank on the Wine Align
Guide to Canada’s Best Wines – Top 10 Sparklings list.

A coastal influenced, traditional method sparkling rosé, this Brut Rosé demonstrates the vibrancy, brilliance and clarity of flavour indicative of an ultra cool-climate region.  From 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Pinot Meunier with 11-months aging on lees.  The vast majority was pressed whole cluster with a minor amount spending a short time (~1 hour) in contact with skins. Individual vineyard parcels were fermented as separate cuvées in stainless steel with neutral Champagne yeasts prior to blending. A full malolactic fermentation in the base wine contributes to the rounded, creamy mid-palate.
