Gruet Rosé Brut Half-Bottle 375ml

The Gruet family left Champagne in 1984 and planted vines in the high-altitude desert of New Mexico — an unlikely move that turned out to be quietly inspired. At 4,300 feet elevation, the cool nights and volcanic soils of the Rio Grande Valley proved to be remarkable terroir for sparkling wine. Today, Gruet Brut Rosé is widely regarded as one of the finest sparkling wine values in America, made by a family that learned the craft in France and never forgot it.

This non-vintage rosé is 100% Pinot Noir, crafted via traditional méthode champenoise with a minimum of 24 months aging on the lees en tirage. The result is a wine of genuine weight and character: a deep, nearly garnet-pink color far richer than a typical salmon rosé, a bright floral bouquet of wild strawberry, raspberry, and rose petal, and a palate that is rich and mouth-filling with ripe cherry, cranberry, and a hint of biscuit from the extended aging. The finish is zesty and clean, with the kind of refreshing acidity that makes the glass disappear faster than expected.
