Flying Goat Cellars 2009 Goat Bubbles Rosé Sparkling Wine

Type: Dry sparkling rosé
Made with: Pinot Noir
What makes it special: Hand made from the Santa Rita Hills
Plays Well With: Just about anything.

If you think pink means icky sweet, then the only thing pink about this wine is the color. It’s a dry sparkling wine with the tiny bubbles that marks a true method champagnoise and it has no, repeat, no residual sweetness. The nose is clean and fresh. The taste is dry and chalky in a good way and the wine dissolves into bubbles by the time it reaches the back of your mouth.

There are plenty of good acids that make this a wine that needs food. Mimosas or bellinis are perfectly all right on their own, but this sparkler is too good to dilute with fruit juice. It’s a bubbly built for cleansing the palate between bites of a Caesar salad,  or to enjoy with seafood like salmon and orange roughy or any special dish that doesn’t need a special occasion. We recommend you enjoy it often.
