Description
Made in the ancestral method, this Vouvray is a serious, complex and vinous expression that provides a stark contrast to mass-produced sparkling Vouvray. The nose is wonderfully complex with notes of green apple, wet wool, brioche, vanilla pod and cinnamon. The palate is initially generous and creamy, keenly balanced by a bright thread of acidity. The fruit profile is reminiscent of apple crumble, with touches of crushed chalk providing a mouth-watering finish. A delicious and characterful sparkling wine with a fine, elegant mousse.
