3B Bairrada Rosé Espumante Baga

The label would normally be off putting to me, but I’m always interested in a female vintner, especially when she is the daughter of a famous Portuguese maker. What a revelation-drinks more like a sparkling Savoie or alpine rose. Close to the bone dry. Lovely pink color. Fine mousse. I love that label now….

Strawberry juices with mangos and apricots. Portuguese pet nat...

Gorgeously laden with wild strawberries and high toned raspberry-mandarín notes on the nose that follow through to the lush palate balanced by notes of pie dough. Delicious long finish with cinnamon and clove...

Salmon pink with orange shimmer. Direct aromas of red berries and orange peel. Medium mousse, integrated acidity and reoccuring aromas. Short length with a chalky finish.

I could drink this every day. Nice fresh fruit with a saline finish.

Such a great everyday bubble--elevates the concept

Sparkling rosé for duck & meaty things--savory & structured, as a blend of baga & bical from Bairrada might suggest. Drinking even better w/ day of air.

What's better than bubbles on VDay? Pink bubbles, that's what!

Delicious & complex. Would be great with charcuterie.
