Haywire Baby Bub 2018
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBaby Bub, affectionately named for Haywire's Alison Scholefield's childhood nickname of The Bub, is a darling diminutive pink split that is released early in the year, prior to Valentine's Day. This charmat sparkler comes from chardonnay and pinot noir from the winery's Oliver and Summerland vineyards and gets its pink hue from the addition of still red wine. Juicy and primary with red fruit, raspberry, and tart cranberry acidity, this is held refreshingly dryish. The crown cap encourages drinking now, easily, often.
