Mousse Sparkling Wine Co.
Mousse Sparkling Wine Co.
Award-winning winemaker Josie Boyle, along with her business partner and husband Micah Lennox, are putting the state of Minnesota on the map for their exceptional handcrafted artisanal small-batch wines at Mousse Sparkling Wine Co. Following years as a winemaker in New Zealand, Iowa and at Michigan's L. Mawby Vineyards, Josie established herself as a celebrated member of the Chankaska Creek Ranch & Winery team. Today, at their own winery in Jordan, Minnesota, these wine lovers and Minnesota natives are combining their passion for locally grown ingredients and Josie's winemaking pedigree to produce top-quality wines at the high caliber of their contemporaries in Napa, Sonoma Valley and New York's Hudson Valley region. Mousse is the only Minnesota winery specializing in méthode champenoise and charmat method sparkling wines, all made from Minnesota-grown grapes. For mimosas at brunch, a celebratory toast or simply enjoying with a friend after work, Mousse is a lovely local selection.
Pick up Mousse Sparkling Wines at your local Kowalski's Wine & Spirits shop or visit the Mousse winery in lovely Jordan, located just beyond the southwestern suburbs of Minneapolis along the banks of the Minnesota River, just off Highway 169. In addition to sparkling wines, the winery also offers hard ciders and still wines in the tasting room of a charming 19th-century brick building or seasonally on their lovely outdoor patio.
