Tasting Notes

I would say I am jealous, but I am venturing out into Wine Country this evening. So if you haven’t checked out the fun tasting room at Furioso, make your reservation now! 🥂 Fact Sparkling wine’s bubbles are formed at “nucleation sites,” or tiny surface imperfections in the glass. Some sparkling wineglass manufacturers etch additional nucleation sites for continuous bubble formation. 🥂 Winery Are you ready to visit a filled with modern architecture, giving the feeling of sitting out in the vineyard during your tasting?
