Frind Sparkling Brut is a testament to the exceptional winemaking practices at Frind Estate Winery, located in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. Made in the traditional method, this sparkling wine showcases a blend of Chardonnay and Riesling grapes harvested from carefully selected vineyards known for their cool climate and mineral-rich soils. The wine undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, which imparts its signature fine bubbles and complexity. The aging process on the lees for an extended period adds depth and creamy texture to the wine. Frind Sparkling Brut has been celebrated for its crisp, clean finish and has received acclaim for bringing a touch of class to Canadian sparkling wines.
