This really surprised us - a bargain fizz that delivers on favour - showing a high degree of richness, complexity and a lovely fresh floral character that deepens with flecks of mature toasty fruit and green apples. A beautiful Blanc de Blancs sparkling wine by the renowned winery Les Grands Chais de France.

Tasting Notes

A clear golden body with green highlights with a stream of many fine bubbles and a wonder persistence. A fruity bouquet with notes of white fruits and brioche hints. Fresh and fruity on the palate. Flavours of apricots and white peach. An elegant and refined wine, which is both powerful and well-balanced.

Food Matches

Superb as an aperitif or to accompany light dishes including scallops, grilled fish and even light dishes such as poultry.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested and gently pressed, go through a cold settling, then yeasting and finally fermentation at a low temperature. Bottle fermentation takes place in pressure tanks for 6 months. These 6 months of ageing will give this superior sparkling wine its complexity. Relatively light clay and limestone soil which lends itself well to growing white grapes for blending into base wine destined for bottle fermentation.
