Rizman, Pjenušac, Komarna, Dalmatia, Croatia, 2021

A sparkling Plavac Mali, the Croatian term Pjenušac for sparkling wine, is made in the traditional method with one year on lees—aromatics of candied strawberries and cream and bright pink florals. The palate offers a fruity freshness with rhubarb, blood orange and tart cranberries lifted by brilliant acidity and fine mousse.
