Why Sparkling Red Wine Deserves a Place on Your Table
What Is Sparkling Red Wine?
Sparkling red wine combines the deep flavors of red grapes with the lively texture of bubbles. Varieties like Lambrusco, Brachetto, and sparkling Shiraz offer fruit-forward notes such as cherry, plum, and blackberry, with natural acidity that refreshes the palate. It’s a wine that balances richness with playfulness, and it’s unlike anything else in the glass.
The Organic Difference
The organic wine selection features producers who work in harmony with nature—farming without synthetic pesticides, fermenting with wild yeasts, and bottling with minimal intervention. These practices result in sparkling red wines that are not only delicious but also better for your body and the planet.
Celebrate Sustainably with Every Glass
Festive and Food-Friendly
Sparkling red wines are a celebration in a bottle. They’re perfect for holidays, barbecues, and casual gatherings where you want a wine that stands out. Their unique character makes them a great match for savory dishes, charcuterie boards, grilled meats, and even desserts with dark fruit or chocolate.
Low Intervention, Big Flavor
Our winemakers focus on small-batch methods, allowing each bottle to reflect the true character of the grape and region. Many selections from our low sulfite wine collection are crafted without artificial enhancements and contain little to no added sulfites, offering a clean, expressive drinking experience that stays true to its roots.
The Best of Both Worlds
Sparkling red wine brings together the boldness of a red with the celebratory fizz of a sparkling wine. This makes it a great option for those looking to try something different without sacrificing depth, complexity, or organic integrity.
For Every Season and Occasion
Whether it’s a summer brunch or a cozy winter dinner, sparkling red wine offers year-round appeal. Serve it slightly chilled to highlight its freshness or let it warm up slightly to reveal deeper fruit and spice characteristics.
