Made with the Charmat method but with a whopping 2 years on the lees to really help with the texture and flavour profile. Watch out Prosecco, you have a new challenger...
About the wine
Crafted from hand-harvested Chardonnay, picked in small 20 kg crates, this Blanc de Blancs is a fine example of Lazar Winery’s dedication to quality and detail. Produced using the Charmat method, with just 1.5g of residual sugar and a limited run of 5,000 bottles, it offers a crisp, elegant expression of Macedonian terroir. Refined, refreshing, and made to elevate any occasion—this is Balkan fizz done right.
Tasting notes
This sparkling rosé shows a delicate pink hue with fine, elegant bubbles. The nose reveals ripe yellow apple, pear, stone fruit, and floral nuances, with added complexity from extended lees ageing—a hallmark of the Charmat method. On the palate, it is dry with a rich mousse, medium to high acidity, and a medium body, offering ripe fruit and a harmonious balance that leads to a vibrant, lingering finish.
