Details
This delicious, gently sparkling wine boasts top notes of pear and melon with a slightly tarter, pithy, yuzu accent on the finish. Plenty to love about this easy-sipping wine, it's uncomplicated and delicious.
Origin: The original sparkling wines were made in a place called Limoux in southern France. Mainly Grown In: These days, the whole world sparkles - these styles are made anywhere and everywhere, from a range of grape varieties. Key Facts: Champagne gets all the attention, but there's so much more to the world of sparkling than that. In fact, there are four main methods of production for sparkling wine, each producing slightly different styles and flavours. What is common across all of them however is really focused, tangy acidity (due mostly to harvesting the grapes early - the acidity is needed to keep the sparkling wine fresh) and an elegant fruit profile. Main flavours often include various citrus fruits, crunchy green apples, and hints of honey or biscuit. At the end of the day though, it's about those bubbles and the refreshment factor! Fun Fact: The oldest sparkling wine was discovered in the cellar of the Haas-Lilienthal House in San Francisco. It was a bottle of Blanquette de Limoux from 1531.
