Our online feature this week is the NV Undurraga Sparkling Rosé Royal (Leyda Valley, Chile) – $21.49, regularly $26.49.

Undurraga was established in 1885 and is one of the oldest wineries in Chile. The company has a total of 1,700 hectares of vineyards, distributed in the valleys of Maipo, Rapel, Leyda and Maule. It exports 75% of its wine production and in 2016 it projected annual sales of 1.5 million cases of wine.

In time for Valentine’s , our feature this week is their Sparkling Rosé Royal a 100% Pinot Noir based sparkler from the Leyda Valley, which is about an hour’s drive west of Santiago. Made using the Charmat method, this salmon colored bubblie offers up a nose of beautiful red fruits like strawberries and cherries alongside ripe peach and yellow apples. It is vibrant with fresh acidity and a lively, persistent mousse. Try pairing with creamy cheeses, fried foods, taco’s, and dark, but not too sweet chocolate. Prost everyone!
