Region
A wide range of sparkling wines are produced by the Charmat Method, which involves a secondary fermentation within a pressurised tank before transfer into bottle. This method produces sparkling wines for early drinking, often blended from appropriate grape varieties sourced from many regions and blended to achieve a balanced wine.
Producer
Located in the heart of Burgundy, the company works closely with growers throughout the region to produce authentic wines that reflect the traditions and distinct `terroir` of Burgundy.
Tasting Notes
Bright golden colour, with an obvious soft and creamy Chardonnay aroma. In the mouth there are hints of almonds and apples, quite full bodied with a good fruity flavour and fresh finish.
Food
Ideal with fish, desserts or with a touch of Creme de Cassis as a `Kir Royale`.
