Magnotta Venture Series Starlight Sparkling Riesling is crafted using the Charmat method, giving it a fresh and lively profile. The nose is inviting with delicate apple, citrus, and yeasty notes, while the palate reveals soft, medium-weight bubbles and a harmonious blend of apple, pear, and a touch of leesy richness. Off-dry with crisp acidity, it's a versatile sparkler that pairs beautifully with brunch, especially a smoked salmon Benny. Perfect for easy sipping with a crowd!

Sparkling food pairings: sushi, sashimi, spicy Korean pork ribs, mild vegetable curries.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
