Beringer Main & Vine White Zinfandel

Crafted by Beringer’s winemakers to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Beringer WhiteZinfandel, Beringer Sparkling White Zinfandel is a festive, effervescent wine made from Zinfandel grapes using traditional winemaking techniques to highlight the varietal’s vibrant fruit flavors and spicy nuances.

Winemaking begins in the vineyard and often peaks with the harvest of the grapes that have been carefully tended all year long. Grapes for the Beringer Classics White Zinfandel were picked at the peak of maturity and brought into the winery for gentle crushing. By keeping the juice in contact with the grapes’ red skins for approximately three hours, a light blush color was retained. Beringer’s winemakers then used slow, cool fermentations to preserve the vibrant, fresh strawberry, honeydew, and citrus aromas and flavors.

The wine has a youthful exuberance that is enjoyable as a sipper on its own, or with a variety of dishes.
