Backsberg, Brut 2016, Paarl, South Africa

Tasting Note: An understated Kosher sparkling wine from South Africa to finish an evening with rather than begin one.

Pale-intensity lemon in color, this wine has a muted nose of green apple.

On the palate the dry, medium-bodied sparkling brut delivers muted, green-fruit flavors supported by medium acidity.

A straightforward, simple, Kosher sparkling wine.

Bottle Note: This Kosher for Passover wine has been made under the strict supervision of the Cape Town Beth Din and the OU of the United States. Mevushal.
