Description

Introducing the Korbel Brut, a sparkling wine that embodies the spirit of celebration. Crafted by Korbel Champagne Cellars, a pioneer in American sparkling wine production since 1882, this classic brut is a delightful expression of Sonoma County’s terroir. It’s a beautifully balanced blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and French Colombard grapes, handpicked and carefully selected to achieve its signature elegance and complexity.

This wine opens with an inviting bouquet of crisp citrus and green apple notes, complemented by subtle hints of toasted bread and brioche, a result of the traditional method of secondary fermentation in the bottle. On the palate, it is dry, with a lively effervescence and refreshing acidity that dances across the tongue. The finish is clean and persistent, leaving a pleasant, fruity aftertaste. The 12% alcohol content makes it light and approachable, perfect for any occasion.

Korbel Brut is not just a sparkling wine; it's a piece of California history. The Korbel family's commitment to quality and innovation has cemented their reputation as one of America's foremost sparkling wine producers. The wine’s versatility makes it an excellent choice to start a meal as an aperitif, but also makes it an ideal companion to a variety of dishes. It pairs beautifully with seafood, particularly oysters and shrimp, light salads, and soft cheeses. Its crispness also cuts through richer dishes, making it a perfect match for creamy pastas or fried foods. Whether you are celebrating a milestone, hosting a dinner party, or simply enjoying a quiet evening, Korbel Brut is the perfect choice to enhance those memorable moments. Served chilled at around 7 degrees Celsius, this is more than just a sparkling wine; it's an experience that invites you to savor life's great moments.
