Szigeti Pinot Noir Rosé Brut
Wine Description
Located on the eastern shores of Lake Neusiedl, the Neusiedlersee region’s Pannonian climate bestows some of the highest average temperatures in Austria, as well as the highest amount of sunshine in Central Europe, on the local vineyards.
The “Méthode Traditionelle,” more costly and time-consuming than other methods of sparkling wine production, ensures that the final wines will have great mouthfeel and complexity. Finally, no oak is used in the winemaking process, which results in a very fruity, delicate sparkling wine with true varietal character.
