Sparkling
Seaview Winery Brut Non-Vintage (Australia)
This Australian sparkling wine is a blend of pinot noir, muscadelle, chenin blanc and semillon varietals and is truly a great bang for the buck! This Oz sparkler features aromas of citrus and subtle vanilla. The palette is dry and features a soft textured mousse with smaller fine bubbles. Flavors of tropical fruits such as pineapple and key lime reveal themselves. I am impressed with the atypical flavors found in this truly unique traditional method wine.

Castello Banfi Brachetto d’Acqui “Rosa Regale” 2004 (Italy)
Rosa Regale translated into English, is the “Regal Rose”. Straight from Italy’s Brachetto D’Acqui appellation, this sparkling wine is sure to please all. With distinct aromas of roses and berries, this effervescent wine is perfect as an aperitif or dessert beverage. Subtly sweet, Rosa Regale pairs incredibly well with any chocolate dessert. In the spirit of Italy, I say “Un Cento Ani” (Translated: One hundred years.)
