TASTING NOTES
Fun, fruit forward, & affordable. Sparklet Candy Red is a rare and unique take on sparkling wine. Inspired by the Lambrusco style sparkling wines of yesteryear, it maintains approachability and smoothness with playful beading bubbles. Highly aromatic, with strong notes of cotton candy. Intense flavors of black cherry are balanced with a subtle but complex tobacco leaf finish. Awarded DOUBLE GOLD at the 2021 Colorado Governor's Cup Wine Competition.
WINEGROWING
Grown with a focus on sustainability. These grapes are farmed on nutrient rich soils, made up of a decomposed ancient sea bed. A properly managed, umbrella like canopy allows for just the right air flow and dappled sunlight onto the clusters to achieve maximum quality. Picked early to retain acidity for sparkling wine production.
WINEMAKING
Whole clusters of Verona are fermented in stainless steel undergoing carbonic maceration. Near the end of fermentation our house yeast culture is pitched to maintain consistency and dominate the rest of fermentation. The grapes are then pressed back to stainless steel and Malo-lactic conversion is blocked. Minimal sulfites added at bottling for stability.

Double Gold
Representing a juxtaposition between the wild untamable elements of grape growing and the artisan craft of winemaking coming together to create nuanced wines. We grow our wines.
Hand harvested, estate grown fruit from our sustainably farmed 70 acres of vineyard. We grow 26 varietals, researching and developing the land and vines to produce our 100% Colorado estate wines.
Our team not only farms the land and grows the grapes, but also vinifies the wine with nominal interference in the cellar to truly express the unique high desert terroir. Our range of clean, ethically produced wines have little to no sulfite additions and are always gluten free, 100% vegan and non-GMO.
If you have enjoyed Colorado wine before, you have most likely tasted our grapes. Now we present them to you as the Grapegrower intended.
