Quick Facts: ABV: 10.5%  |  Origin: California, United States  |  Style: Flavored Sparkling Moscato  |  Producer: Barefoot Cellars (E & J Gallo Winery)
Production & Heritage
Barefoot Cellars has been part of the E & J Gallo Winery family since 2005, operating out of Modesto, California. The Bubbly Peach expression starts with a Moscato base that undergoes yeast fermentation before being infused with natural fruit flavors, specifically juicy Georgia Peach. A distinctive twist-and-pop cork replaces the traditional wire cage and mushroom cork, eliminating the need for a wine opener and reinforcing Barefoot’s focus on casual, accessible drinking occasions.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Ripe Georgia peach dominates the nose immediately, followed by delicate honeysuckle and a soft floral sweetness. Underneath, subtle hints of creamy vanilla emerge from the fermentation process.
Taste: The entry is bright and distinctly peachy, with juicy stone fruit spreading across the palate. Mid-palate introduces lighter notes of fresh apple and citrus, while touches of toasted almond add a brief savory contrast to the prevailing sweetness. The body is light and the carbonation is lively without being aggressive.
Finish: The finish is clean and moderately short, closing on a fresh nectar quality that keeps things from becoming cloying. Residual peach sweetness lingers gently alongside a faint honeysuckle echo.
How to Drink Barefoot Bubbly Peach
Serve well chilled, ideally between 38–45°F, in a flute or stemless wine glass to concentrate the peach aromatics. This sparkler is designed for easy sipping on its own but also works as a mixer. A Bellini is the natural choice — the built-in peach flavor means less prep with peach purée. It also shines in a Peach Mimosa, adding depth beyond standard orange juice brunch pours. For a summer cocktail, try it in a Sparkling Sangria with sliced stone fruit and a splash of elderflower liqueur to amplify the floral notes.
