Gruet Tasting Room

Gruet, a champagne-style sparkling wine made by vintners from Champagne, is the gem of New Mexico’s viticulture scene. The bubbly comes in several flavors—blanc de noirs, blanc de blanc, demi-sec, and rosé—and it’s sometimes hard to pick just one bottle. Try a glass of each at the Gruet tasting room in the St. Francis Hotel. The space is an elegant, no-nonsense bar, and is meant for a true appreciation of the fruit of the vine.
