“My wife loves the wine. She’s more of a white/sparkling wine connoisseur. I’m grilling salmon – so it’s a wonderful compliment and I like that it’s not sweet. I would describe it as light with a pleasant tartness. Thank you very much.”

The Winery

Christina Hellmich and Andrew Rivard started HR with the challenge of producing the first sparkling wine in Mississippi. In 2020, they joined Breckenridge Vineyards and Brut Bottling to produce the wine. Christina is a professor and Andrew is a physician. Between balancing careers and family, they enjoy sharing Southern hospitality.

The Vineyard

The farm is located in Clarke County surrounded by rolling hills within the Pascagoula River basin. The terroir is fossiliferous light-gray clay with selenite crystals and calcareous nodules. The vineyard has 200 acres of cultivar in a combination of double and single-trellis vines using a fully sustainable viticulture practice.

The Grape

Muscadine grapes are native to the southern United States and have a 400 year history of viticulture. The grapes are hearty with a thick skin that protects them in hot and humid climates and are high in antioxidants. The Carlos varietal was developed in 1970 for consistent yields.

The Traditional Method

Christian Troussieux started Brut Bottling in Napa following 20 years in the tech industry. He is joined by Eric Gordon and Craig Roemer, known for their attention to detail and high quality. His son, Remy Troussiex joined Brut Bottling following graduation from Oregon State with a degree in Fermentation Science.
