This beautiful sparkler rested on its lees for 70 months, giving it extra smoothness and rich denseness. The bouquet is redolent of apricot, ripe fruit, melon and lightly toasted baguette. The mouthfeel is long, elegant and driven by fine perlage.

This is a wine to fall in love with. Pale rose petal pink in color, the wine greets the nose with a refreshing medley of raspberry, strawberry and peach—but never too much of any one aroma to offset the others. Its evolution is quite remarkable and after a few sips, cinnamon, spice and Christmastime cookies come to mind.

This luminous sparkler opens with a pretty golden hue and aromas of apricot, buttery almond and honey backed by a touch of exotic spice or cumin. The wine is fragrant and intense with spicy overtones of crushed white pepper.

There’s a very fine, elegant quality to this sparkling wine, evident in both the bouquet and in the soft intensity of its perlage. Creamy and rich, it delivers tones of Golden Delicious apple and honey, with loads of peach and apricot.

A beautiful wine with beautiful packaging to match (a truly museum-worthy bottle). Green apple, honeydew melon and yeast reveal themselves after the creamy mousse has finished its show. Hits the palate with enough personality and precision to accompany a full meal.

This creamy blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco offers a solid structure, firm and persistent perlage, backed by fragrant aromas of yellow fruit and pressed flowers. You could pair this wine with shellfish or smoked salmon.
