Introducing Libelle: The Sparkling Wine with a Fascinating Journey
Embark on a journey as we unveil the final steps in crafting the exquisite Libelle Sparkling wine with Halter Ranch's Winemaker, Kevin Sass. This captivating process encompasses the art of riddling, disgorgement, and labeling, bringing you a taste of perfection.
Named after the German translation of "dragonfly," Libelle is a tribute to a painting created by proprietor Hansjörg Wyss' father for his beloved wife, Alice Halter. Discover the magic behind this exceptional sparkling wine as we unveil the intricate Méthode Champenoise process that ensures the highest quality in every bottle. While Champagne is traditionally produced from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in cool climates, Libelle breaks the mold by using 100% Picpoul Blanc, a white Rhône grape variety known as "Lip Stinger" in French, which preserves its acidity even in warm climates.
