We are thrilled to introduce our latest vintage Sparkling Rosé 2022, which owes its name to our twin passion for wine and music - both of which share the ability to generate happiness and lift spirits.

This is a very LIMITED EDITION with only 288 bottles produced: a Sparkling Rosé made from all 5 of our grape varietals - Bacchus, Chardonnay, Meunier, Ortega and Pinot Noir.

A pale elegant Rosé, with delicate aromas of raspberry, citrus and fresh peach. Vibrant in the mouth with persistent bubbles and long finish hinting of bright red berries.

So, this is a rare drop. Each bottle is individually numbered and features our specially-commissioned funky label.
