I have seen this pink little can in the store for a long time and it was finally time to put it in my basket. At $3.99 the Sofia Blanc de Blanc definitely won't empty your wallet.
This sparkling wine is made from Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscat. The producer is Francis Ford Coppola (the famous movie director with a winery in Napa Valley) and it is named after his almost equally famous daughter, Sofia Coppola.
It was a little but weird, but on the other hand fun, to pour this bubbly from a can into a crystal champagne glass.
It has a pale straw color in the glass and has a lively stream of bubbles shooting towards the surface.On the nose it displays sweet pear and gooseberry.
The palate shows pear, sweet white floral, and citrus. It is crisp and fresh.
The first thing that came to my mind both smelling and tasting this wine is Italian Prosecco. It is sweet and vivid in flavor, missing the yeasty and earthy components of a champagne.
Give it a try next time you see it and let me know what you think...
