Details
The San Lucas Sparkling is a distinctly Argentine blend of Torrontes, Pedro Gimenez, and Chenin Blanc. It is clean with fresh, vibrant citrus fruit along with a bubbly goodness making this the ideal party starter.
Origin: The original sparkling wines were made in a place called Limoux in southern France. Mainly Grown In: These days, the whole world sparkles - these styles are made anywhere and everywhere, from a range of grape varieties. Key Facts: Champagne gets all the attention, but there's so much more to the world of sparkling than that. In fact, there are four main methods of production for sparkling wine, each producing slightly different styles and flavours. What is common across all of them however is really focussed, tangy acidity (due mostly to harvesting the grapes early - the acidity is needed to keep the sparkling wine fresh) and an elegant fruit profile. Main flavours often include various citrus fruits, crunchy green apple and hints of honey or biscuit. At the end of the day though, it's about those bubbles and the refreshment factor! Fun Fact: Sparkling wine can be made in many ways - Traditional Method, Tank (Charmat) Method, or Ancestral Method. The biggest difference is the quality of the bubbles (referred to as the 'bead' or 'mousse').

Pairing guide
Crisp, lively, and full of citrusy freshness, the San Lucas Sparkling Brut is the ultimate crowd-pleaser for toasts, picnics, and sunny afternoons. Its bright acidity and fine bubbles make it a natural with oysters, prawns, or smoked salmon blinis. It’s equally delicious alongside fried calamari, sushi, or a creamy brie. For something casual, try it with fish and chips or a bowl of salted popcorn—the bubbles make everything taste lighter and fresher.
