Korbel Brut Rose

Winemaking: Making a consistent bubbly Rosé using the Méthode Champenoise process isn’t always easy. We use Pinot Noir, Sangiovese and Gamay lots that have a noticeable pink hue for our California Brut Rosé but the yeast used in the fermentation process removes some of the color. To adjust to the desired hue, young red wine is added in the sweetening dosage – this also adds a note of complexity to the blend right at the end. The focus is creating a California champagne that is always flavorful, bright, and aromatic.
