Brillante Sparkling Wine
Tasting notes
“Brillánte”, which translates to “Brilliant” in Spanish, is Castillo de Feliciana’s signature sparkling wine. Produced from 100% Albariño and harvested early in autumn, “Brillánte” drinks fruit forward, crisp, and delicately effervescent. Delicate, fine bubbles on the palate compliment sweet citrus, ripe Anjou pear, and honeysuckle. With a naturally produced carbonation more typically found in Prosecco style sparkling wines, "Brillánte” drinks light, possessing bright acidity that is balanced gently with 1.3% residual sugar. Much like a crystal clear nighttime sky, the "starry" finish is clean, crisp, and refreshing. Enjoy as a starter with light foods, roasted poultry dishes, and Manchego macaroni and cheese.
Production notes
This sparkling wine was produced using the time honored Méthode Tradionnelle. A second fermentation inside the bottle produces the fine effervescence and subtle yeast nuances. Upon completion of this second fermentation, the bottles are “riddled” to collect the yeast, “disgorged” to remove the solids, and finally corked for preservation.
