Description
Sunrise Brut is a French sparkling wine made from Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay grapes. The wine is dry, warm, and has good intensity. The grapes were harvested during a dry, warm weather period, which helped with the wine's colour and flavour development. The wine was then fermented over two weeks and blended with Cabernet Franc. The wine was aged for 18 months on the lees before being disgorged. The wine is made with a Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay blend, and has a zesty and fresh taste with a harmonious finish.
