Sparkling Wine Perpetual Reserve Rhys Vineyards

This multi-vintage sparkler takes advantage of a continual reserve wine made from select lots of wine each vintage. When the blend is assembled each year, the reserved wine from prior vintages is mixed with the base wine from the current vintage. Half of this blend is bottled as the new Perpetual Reserve while the remainder goes back to age until the next vintage. Aging two years on the lees preserves the freshness of the current vintage and the inclusion of the reserve wine lends the complexity of age. Expect a bright and energetic wine with classic sparkling characteristics of white and yellow fruit, citrus peel, and a touch of brioche. The low dosage highlights the terrific energy and vibrant acidity, making this a sparkling wine that is both immediately approachable and ageworthy.
