"A salmon color and aromas of orange peel and rubber form the opening on this rosé sparkler. A foamy mouthfeel is cut back and tempered by a bolt of citric acid, while this tastes briny and like citrus skins."

"Light salmon pink. Aromatically effusive of orchard fresh red cherries. Bright and lively on the attack, this is a sparkling wine that offers good depth of red cherry seamlessly integrated with freshly baked bread notes. Pure with good finesse, this is a wine with enough substance to pair with red meats. 100% Pinot Noir from 10 year old vines in the Ayni vineyard in the Paraje Altamira in the Uco Valley; aged 18 months on the lees."

"An impressive first release for this all-Pinot Noir bubbly from Paraje Altamira, aged for 18 months on its lees before disgorgement. It’s a creamy, bready, well-balanced style, with fine bubbles and a dry, palate-cleansing finish. A fizz to watch. 2017-22"

"Perhaps with the same sort of structural power that Altamira reds possess, this sparkling rosé shows something immutable in body, lively texture, bracing acidity. The wine spent 18 months on the lees and this, no doubt, provides flavor complexities well beyond the fruit, but still the fruit predominates with intense aromas, substantial, and crisp, lively acidity. If what you’re looking for is a sparkler for carpaccio or roast beef, this is it."
