Crafted from a blend of 95% Riesling and 5% Pinot Noir, this wine presents a delicate rose-pink hue with a persistent mousse. The nose offers enticing aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and baked lemon, complemented by notes of toasted brioche and a distinct minerality reminiscent of gravel and limestone. On the palate, refined bubbles and brisk acidity lead to flavors of strawberry, lemon cream, orange blossom, and stone fruit, culminating in a long, mineral-driven finish. The Finger Lakes region, with its mineral-rich soils and cool climate, provides an ideal environment for producing world-class sparkling wines. Empire Estate, founded by sommelier Thomas Pastuszak, focuses on highlighting the region's potential through wines like this Brut Rosé. The grapes are sourced from sustainably farmed vineyards with diverse soil compositions, including limestone, shale, and clay. Each vineyard's unique character is preserved through separate vinification processes, involving cold soaking, fermentation styles, and aging in a combination of stainless steel and neutral oak. The traditional method of secondary fermentation is employed, with the wine bottled in early summer after resting through winter and spring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"XXI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67703695049068,"sku":"851009007398","price":24.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/3053\/files\/empire-estate-brut-rose-nv-750ml-602488.jpg?v=1791953845","url":"https:\/\/redneckwinecompany.com\/products\/empire-estate-blanc-de-blancs-brut-rose-n-v-750ml","provider":"Redneck Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
