Cherubino Folklore Sparkling

Tasting Notes

🔹 Appearance: A sparkling pale straw with fine, persistent bubbles that dance in the glass.

🔹 Aroma: A vibrant bouquet of citrus, crisp green apple, and ripe peach, with a hint of floral elegance.

🔹 Palate: Dry with creamy, full beads that coat the mouth. Soft acidity provides balance, while the smooth mid-palate texture leads to a crisp, clean, lingering finish.

Winemaking

🔹 Grapes: Sourced from Cherubino’s estate vineyards, the handpicked Chardonnay is harvested early to preserve lively fruit character.

🔹 Fermentation: Minimal intervention during fermentation allows the fruit’s natural expression. Secondary fermentation in the bottle creates fine, persistent bubbles, enhancing the wine’s texture and complexity.

A Wine That Tells a Story

Named Folklore to celebrate the traditions and connections of winemaking, this sparkling wine blends the past, present, and future of Cherubino’s craftsmanship. Each bottle is a story waiting to be shared, making it the perfect choice for any celebration or refined evening with friends.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

❓ What makes Cherubino Folklore Sparkling different from other sparkling wines?
🔹 Cherubino Folklore Sparkling is made using traditional winemaking techniques, but with a modern focus on pure fruit expression. The handpicked, early-harvested Chardonnay grapes from Cherubino’s own vineyards give this wine a distinctive freshness and elegance.

❓ What is secondary fermentation in the bottle?
🔹 Secondary fermentation in the bottle is a crucial part of making sparkling wines. It’s when the wine undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle to develop the fine bubbles, creating a creamy, smooth texture and adding complexity to the flavours.

❓ What is meant by “full bead” in sparkling wines?
🔹 “Full bead” refers to the fine, persistent bubbles in sparkling wine. These tiny bubbles give the wine its creamy texture and contribute to a satisfying mouthfeel.

❓ Why is Chardonnay used in sparkling wines like Folklore?
🔹 Chardonnay is a popular grape variety for sparkling wines due to its ability to retain freshness and acidity. It contributes vibrant citrus and apple flavours, which are balanced by its ability to develop rich, creamy textures during fermentation.

I've been ordering from Partners in Wine for three years now - from the UK for my sister living in Perth. Each time they've been bang on with my order including  on time delivery. Kirk has also helped me select my wines from an extensive list.  A very pleasant and friendly company to deal with. I would highly recommend them.
