Tasting Notes
Day 19 of Oregon Sparkling!
We all adore Soter’s Brut Rose, aka Soter Pop. What if you get a cheaper version from Planet Oregon at New Seasons? Well, wait no more! There will be a few more sun-filled days in October, and this 2020 Rose Bubbles is waiting for you!
🥂 Fact
One woman, above all others, is responsible for making Champagne the luxury product it is today.
When she became a widow in 1805, the then 27-year-old Madame Clicquot (also known as Widow (‘Veuve’) Clicquot or “the Grande Dame of Champagne” took charge of her father-in-law’s business, and in the process, changed the world of wine forever.
Not only did she pioneer a new technique that led to extraordinary improvements in Champagne, known as riddling, but she also worked tirelessly to promote and popularize it.
🥂 Winery - Planet Oregon
Planet Oregon is part of Soter Vineyards, and if you don’t know about Soter, contact me ASAP. I will give you a short history lesson. For those who know Soter, the level of detail to ensure minimal environmental impact stands out when visiting the tasting room. Tony Soter is a man with a long history of winemaking in California and Oregon. He always believes in walking each block to see what the vines are telling him. A portion of the Planet Oregon wines goes to the Oregon Environmental Council.
