The Ci Confonde Rose, one of three sisters of wines that we make under the Ci Confonde name, has always been a bit of a calling card for us. We've been making this wine since 2013 and it, like its two siblings, has become one of our most popular bottles. Grown in the Vergennes vineyard on clay and limestone, this Frontenac Gris is a bit of a moonstone when it comes to varieties; some years the rose is dark fuschia, other years the bubbles are pale salmon. It all depends on the season, when we have rain and when we have sun. In 2023, we had an early hot spring then a lot of rain all season long with which resulted in a beautiful pink with just a tinge of orange, like a sunset over water. This wine is bright with acidity, a fine beaded necklace of bubbles, and floral like the best alpine strawberries. We like this wine with Shrimp cocktail Cured salmon with fresh lemon and capers Taramasala Smoked bluefish Fried red or white fish Onion rings Chicken roasted with olives and rosemary Frontenac Gris Indigenous yeast No added sulfites Grown on clay and limestone
