Summer stone fruits are a healthy, fresh way to go at dessert time with our exclusive fizzy wines, Fissata Blonde and Fissata Red or a sweet Rose. Hints of peaches, melon and red berries complement those in the dish while effervescent bubbles serve as a delicious contrast to creamy fromage blanc. Add a few warm spices like cinnamon and ginger to the combination - yum!

Fruit flavors of peaches, nectarines and apricots play an important role in the wine paired against the real thing on your plate. With only a subtle sweetness from honey, the dessert will not compete with the sweetness of the wine. The soft honey element in the dish enhances that detected in the wine. Look to the gentle fizz to cut the thickness of a dollop of fromage blanc, the French answer to yogurt without the bitterness.
More InfoFruit punch, berries and candy elements combine with nuts and stone fruits in our cheerful pink bubbly to flatter similar flavors in the dish. The rich mouthfeel of fromage blanc contrasts nicely with the spritzy character of the wine.
