New World Red
Rich complexity and full-body that comes from mature fruit. The palate is luscious, round and silky, with well-developed flavors of toasted oak, currant, and black cherry. Double Gold medal winner Finger Lakes International Wine Competition. Pairs well with steak, lamb, and cheeses such as gruyere.
Cost $28
SP Rose
With a beautiful salmon hue, the nose of this Brut is of rose petals, blackberry, and light toast. The crisp acidity and minerality are balanced well with the notes of red fruits that are brought by the Pinot Noir in the blend.
Cost $14
