“The Holidays are long over, but that doesn’t mean you have to stop drinking sparkling wine. In fact, dark and cold winter nights can sure use a little help from a bubble or two.
In our book, sparkling wine is not seasonal, and we happily drink it year-round. It’s the perfect way to add a little glamour to even the grayest and most drab of days, and there’s a sparkling wine to pair with almost any kind of food.
Now, the sparkling wine market has exploded over the past 5-10 years, so how do you know what you should be drinking right now? Well, you turn to Honest Cooking of course – as we took it upon ourselves to sip our way through hundreds of wines in order to come up with a list of fabulous and festive sparklers for every wallet; accompanied by a few words along the way from the winemakers themselves.”
2015 Argyle Brut Rosé
“Winemaker’s Notes: The 2015 sparkling wine vintage in the Willamette Valley was exemplary, showcasing the alluring depth and clarity the region has to offer. Narrowing down and focusing in on the windy, high elevations of the Eola-Amity Hills, and specifically our Spirit Hill Vineyard, this year’s Brut Rosé aligns rose petal, peach skin, and cracked fennel with energetic mineral length and creamy texture.”
