Getting married this spring or summer or perhaps renewing wedding vowels?

Don’t forget to make the wine part of the event planning.

Sparkling rosé is a great option for a formal or casual reception.

These wines aren’t Champagne and will not break the wedding reception budget.

Cava – sparkling rosé is from Spain and wildly available in the retail market. Refreshing with tastes of white flowers, citrus, dried cranberries, and fine silky bubbles.

Cab Franc – sparkling rosé is reminiscent of strolling into a garden with roses, and peony. Tastes of nutty marzipan and fresh fruit linger on the palette.

Malbec is a bold sparkling rosé, with an extraordinary deep hue. Smokey, rich dark fruit, round tannins, and a firm structure.

Prosecco is finally produced into a rosé, made of 85% glera and 15% Pinot noir. Big frothy bubbles, ripened pear, citrus, and green apples are refreshing for guests dancing the night away. Moscato is a sweet sparkling rosé with tastes of cotton candy, sugared fruit, and plenty of tongue tingling bubbles. 

Congratulations to everyone and happiness in abundance.
