Straw color. Aromas and flavors of white stones, toast, and gala apple with a lean, vibrant, dry light body and an effortless, interesting, medium-length finish with shades of lemon swathe and curry spices with fruit tannins and no oak flavor. A perfectly simple sparkler for anything from appetizers to fresh pastas.

Brut

Brut is a term that defines dryness levels in sparkling wines; it is most famously used for Champagne, but it is a common term used around the world for most sparkers.

While Brut means "dry" for all intents and purposes, it can actually be off-dry or even lightly sweet. The definition of Brut for Champagne is between 0-12 grams of residual sugar, so Brut actually describes a range of sensations.

No matter how dry a Brut sparkling wine actually is in technical terms, it is generally dry enough to serve at the dinner table with most foods.
