Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: March 7, January 4, December 16 and November 20.

Tasting note:

This wonderfully exuberant bubbly made from pinot noir grapes displays pure raspberry essence on the nose. It's surprisingly robust on the palate with lots of terrific pinot character and black cherries. This is an organic wine and one to enjoy! Food matches: tapas, flatbreads, salads, cheese.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
A classic dry sparkling, Cipes Rose is the ideal wine for a festive celebration or a summer afternoon on the patio.
This medium bodied bubbly shows aromas of strawberries, raspberries, apples and toast, with citrus, apricots and
peaches on the palate. Made from 100% Organic Pinot Noir, this wine was aged en tirage for 18 months.

Serve this wine between 45-50 degrees Farenheit or 6-10 degrees Celsius. Tip: If your bottle is at room temperature, put it in ice water for about 30 minutes or in the fridge for about three hours to chill it.
