Made from Pinot Noir, this wine has a classic coral rose color. Fresh strawberry, raspberry and nectarine shine on the nose, with a glimmer of fresh citrus. Abundant fresh strawberry, raspberry, cherry and watermelon start creamy but turn tart and juicy towards the long cherry and lemon-juice finish. Bubbles are pillowy.

Description

La Baume Brut Sparkling wines from France were created in a collaboration between famed winemaker Florence Delabre and the Domaine de la Baume team. This project originated from the desire to craft elegant yet approachable sparkling wines from the South of France. The grapes are harvested at night at the coldest temperature. Subsequently, vinification takes place in stainless steel followed by a secondary tank fermentation utilizing the Charmat method. The La Baume sparkling wines are then bottled in slim and sleek Juliette shaped clear bottles that are visually striking. These wines owe their fresh, fruity character to the care and patience of these experienced teams.

Winemaker Florence Delabre grew up in the city of Lyon, France, but has always been surrounded by agriculture. Florence studied agronomy and oenology in Montpellier, located in the Languedoc region of the south of France. Her discovery and passion for the wine world began here, and Languedoc became her home. Florence has been working for 10 years as a winemaker throughout the Mediterranean region crafting top quality, elegant wines.

Tasting notes

The La Baume Pinot Noir Brut Sparkling features a pretty bright pale pink color. With an expressive and intense nose of red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant) and classic Pinot Noir aromatics. Creamy on the palate with dominant notes of strawberries, fresh cherries and floral notes on the finish with good length and complexity. 100% Pinot Noir
