Bellpine Pearl is a pale rose wine made from gently pressed wings of Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir. The unique color results from brief exposure of the clear juice to the dark skins. While making a “Blanc de Noir” or lightly hued wine wine from dark grapes is not exceedingly difficult, it does require attention to detail as this wine was fermented without sulfur dioxide. Bellpine is the name of our sedimentary soil series and Bellpine Pearl is our pearl from the soil or “Perle de Bellpine.”
Tasting Notes: Sporting intensely flamboyant pink coral, an evolving bouquet of fresh summer strawberry, currant and tea rose aromas are enlivened by kumquat zest to conjure up a kaleidoscopic Springtime bouquet. Flavors of pineapple, strawberry and starfruit evoke a cloudburst of mid-palate intensity that lingers effortlessly as if there is unfinished business to attend. And that is just about as elegant a thrill as one can expect from “The Pearl.” The next move is up to you…
Culinary Inclinations: Once you move past the obligatory cured meats and fragrant cheeses with fresh strawberries and Asian pear, check out the smoked duck breast salad with crumbled goat cheese and dried cranberries. Smoked black cod with mild blue cheese and tangerine segments is a fine substitution. And yes, it is 5:00 somewhere.
