So I know this sounds like an odd question, especially when champagne exists. But I’ve heard that certain wine makers/companies are trying to capitalize off the surging popularity of seltzer/sparkling water and have introduced carbonated red and white wines. The thought sounds so appealing to me, so I was jazzed when I came across what I thought was a sparkling Pinot noir at the market. When I got home and made a pizza, I sat down, cracked open the can, took my first sip and was devastated to not feel the fizzy sensation I thought was awaiting me! Turns out it was merely Pinot noir… in a can! Upon further inspection of the can, there was no mention of bubbles of fizz.
First lesson is to read the description at the store! Second lesson is, well… idk
All this to say, has anyone tried an actual carbonated wine before? What was it like? Were you slayed?
Discuss.
