Description

Omiroje Sparkling Wine is a 12% ABV sparkling fruit wine from Gyeongsangbuk-do, built around Korean-grown omija (Schisandra chinensis), a berry famous for delivering five distinct taste sensations - sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and pungent - in a single fruit. This unique flavor complexity makes omija one of the most fascinating ingredients in Korean beverage making, and translating it into sparkling form is an inspired choice. The nose is lively and layered - red currant, dried rose petal, and a bright citrus-berry tartness that lifts the aromatics into effervescent territory even before the first sip. On the palate, fine bubbles carry a sweet-tart interplay across the tongue with genuine vivacity. The body is light with a refreshing, palate-cleansing quality. Omija's characteristic sourness provides natural backbone, keeping the sweetness disciplined and the overall impression energetic. The finish is bright and moderately short, with a clean berry snap and lingering floral whisper. Produced by a 2015 Chajaganeun Yangjojang (Visiting Brewery), this is a distinctive Korean take on celebratory sparkling style. The 750ml bottle suits festive gatherings. Serve well-chilled at 6-8°C as an aperitif, with light seafood appetizers, or alongside fruit-topped desserts where the sparkling acidity refreshes between sweet bites.
