My Review: Normally I do not like overly sweet wines, but I actually enjoyed this wine! Maybe it's just because the weather is getting warmer and I can find it refreshing! I think the main reason I liked this particular wine was because it was more complex than other sweet sparkling wines I've have, like Moscato. I didn't feel like I was just drinking carbonated fruit juice. This wine smelled of apples, peach, and something like pink lemonade. On the palate it was definitely sweet, but as I said before I surprisingly didn't mind it. It tasted citrusy with a hint of honey and strawberries. Overall, this was a very refreshing light wine. This wine was tasted on its own without food.
Winery Review: "90 pts, Decanter Magazine. Bera is a soft and plush wine with creamy foam, lemony mousse and loads of fragrant peach blossom, honey and sweet almond on the bouquet. You’ll love the intensity of elegant, fresh, rich flavours and vibrant acidity."
