Sparkling Brut Rosé Pomegranate Mignonette

This Champagne mignonette was created with Laetitia Sparkling Brut Rosé by The Coastal Oyster Co. Laetitia is the premier Sparkling Wine house of California’s Central Coast, and their Sparkling Brut Rosé is an award-winning Bubbly they make in house, in the French Champagne style.

Laetitia’s story began in 1982, when André Allier-Duetz of Champagne Deutz recognized in this estate the same promise he knew from his native France. Inspired by the growing conditions, he established Maison Deutz on the property and installed two traditional Coquard presses—still in use today and the only ones of their kind in North America.
