Twilight Passage

◎ Appearance

Twilight Passage presents a vivid pomegranate red hue, transparent and luminous against the light. A delicate pinkish head rises with fine bubbles, displaying modest but persistent retention. The carbonation is visibly lively, with a steady stream of small pearls rising through the clear body.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with ripe blueberry and dark mulberry, supported by bright red currant and pomegranate notes. A subtle mineral edge and gentle oak char emerge from nine months in the foudre, while delicate pinot noir grape undertones add complexity. The aromatic profile remains balanced and inviting rather than jammy or overripe.

◐ Taste

The palate is light and effervescent, opening with bright acidity that frames berry fruit elegantly across the mid-palate. Red currant and raspberry provide tangy structure, while the sourness remains restrained and food-friendly. Oak integrates subtly, lending a dry finish without harshness or astringency.

◑ Finish

The finish is crisp and clean, with lingering red fruit acidity and a whisper of oak that gradually fades. Refreshment dominates the aftertaste rather than alcohol warmth.
