100% Maria Gomes, initially fermented in stainless steel on the skins, then pressed off the skins and finishes fermentation in bottle. Sparkling skin-contact wine isn't a terribly common style, but perhaps it should be — this combines the delicate aromatics of Maria Gomes with gentle tannins and punchy flavors of orchard and citrus fruit, all kept in check by bright acidity and tons of freshness. A gentle 11.5% abv makes this a perfect bottle to share with friends or sip with cheese, charcuterie, or grilled fare.
