BRUT ROSÉ

NV Decoy Brut Rose California
Dan and Margaret Duckhorn, founders of Duckhorn Vineyards, established Decoy as a value-focused brand in 1985. Duckhorn has a reputation in Napa Valley for producing memorable wines of the utmost quality. Decoy comes from a mix of Duckhorn estate vineyards and other top growers, seeing the same meticulous treatments as their prized, family-named wines. 
 
Acclaimed winemaker Dana Epperson is an expert with multiple grape varieties, using her intuition to create the Decoy Sparkling Rosé into a sensational delight. This wine spent a year en tirage before being disgorged, meaning it spent time with the lees in the bottle and developed more complex and sophisticated aromas and flavors that are readily enjoyable immediately upon release.

“The Decoy Brut Rosé Sparkling Wine opens with fruity notes of strawberry, lime zest, kiwi, and golden raisin. On the palate, the wine has bright flavors of white cherry, green guava, and berries and cream with a hint of raw almond. The fresh acidity perfectly balances the juicy fruit flavors and finishes with an invigorating freshness.”

BRUT ROSÉ
NORTH COAST NV

Goldeneye Brut Rose North Coast NV
Dan and Margaret Duckhorn founded Goldeneye Winery in 1996 to expand their winemaking repertoire into cool-climate, Burgundian varietals in Northern California. The Pacific marine influence brings mild temperatures, fog, and wind to the vineyards, providing an ideal environment for growing classic sparkling wine grapes Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay.
 
The fruit for this wine was sourced from some of the finest and coldest vineyard sites in the North Coast AVA, maintaining high levels of refreshing acidity and brightness. The North Coast Brut Rosé was made in the traditional Champagne method with 26 months en tirage creating a beautiful balance of vibrant fruit and yeasty brioche notes that are almost too easy to enjoy. This lovely wine is my new favorite domestic sparkler.

“The Goldeneye North Coast Brut Rosé Sparkling Wine opens with aromas of orange blossom, strawberry cream cheese, sour cherry, apricot, and brioche. On the palate, the wine has a creamy, supple mousse and flavors of strawberry, grapefruit, and toasted pastry dough. The depth of flavors is impressive and contributes to a long, delightful finish.”
