Snappy, fizzy, dry.
Tasted bottle No.2047.
Covert Farms is a 650-acre, four-generations, family-owned organic and regeneratively farmed farm and winery estate located just north of Oliver.
This sparkling Zin (a rare grape to use for bubbly) is made in a natural method (method ancestrale), whereby it is put through natural fermentation, bottled, and left to ferment with no intervention. It is unfiltered and topped with a crown cap.
As one would expect, it's a cloudy wine that's the palest salmony pink. Aromas of orange pekoe tea and tobacco, tart red berries, peach fuzz and hops lead to a zesty palate. It's bone dry, fizzy and not shy with acidity. Flavours of tealeaf and bitter orange stain the palate. Overall bright with a rustic character and tart snappy finish.
