Crémant De Loire

Crémant de Loire Sauvion, Loire, France (75cl, 13%) 

This is a fantastic, quality alternative to Champagne, at a budget-friendly price, without compromising on quality. Made in the exact same way as Champagne, Crémant is crafted using the traditional method – the process involves a second fermentation in bottle, and aged for at least 12 months prior to release. This process is what brings the complexity and finesse to your glass. The Alsace region produces the most Crémant, however, the Loire Valley also offers up some delicious, luxurious bubbles.

Tasting notes: Cremant de Loire Sauvion is a blend of Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay grapes from vineyards around Angers, Saumur and Tours. The result is a perfectly balanced, effervescent Crémant with gentle blossom aromas, rich and full in the mouth. Aromas of citrus and brioche followed by ripe peach and blossom flavours shimmy across the palate, with a bright, lively and refreshing finish. Perfect for all those parties and gatherings, and great for those looking to switch it up from Prosecco. Cheers!

Food match - A great aperitif, or pair with party food!
