3B Extra Brut Sparkling Rosé, Filipa Pato, NV, Portugal

 A locally-grown, Portuguese blend of super-dry grapes, this sparkling rosé is elegant and clean. Filipa Pato's philosophy of producing wine "without make-up" shines through in this lovely bottle. Vibrant and expressive, this wine hails from the Bairrada region and is represented by the "3B" name, signifying Bairrada, Baga, and Bical grapes.

Fermented naturally and aged for nine months on its lees, this unfined and unfiltered rosé boasts a zero-dosage, resulting in a crisp and lively flavor profile featuring tart cranberries, rhubarb, and red currants. Its refined, creamy texture is balanced by lively acidity and a distinct minerality, with a dry and refreshing finish that leaves delicate hints of yeast.
