Vinification Details: The grapes for Barefoot were harvested at optimum ripeness which led to easy extraction of colour and velvety tannins. The winemaker selected particularly aromatic yeast strains and employed a warm fermentation process resulting in more intense flavours and fruitier aromatics. Proper storage after fermentation has added complexity and balance to the wine.
History: Barefoot Wine & Bubbly got started in California in the 1960s. Its founders believed that wine should be more fun and less serious; and created a wine that could be enjoyed by everyone from first-time wine drinkers to hard-core aficionados. Barefoot Wine & Bubbly is the most awarded and #1 wine brand in the US and was introduced to the UK in 2007. Staying true to its grassroots beginnings Barefoot Wine & Bubbly gives back to local non-profit groups through charitable wine donations.
Regional Information: The grapes were grown in selected vineyards of the Central Valley. Grapes enjoy the characteristic warm California days and cool nights- ideal conditions for perfectly ripe fruit.
