It's said that 150 years before Dom Perignon started to try to get rid of accidental fizz in Champagne, the monks of Limoux outside of Carcassone were making bubble on purpose. Their successors certainly keep the party going... Read More
One of the most deliciously savory Proseccos we've ever tasted comes from the very best subzone of the region and brother/sister team making benchmark wines for the past 20 years. The Vinous 91 point review describes it well:... Read More
Just what you’d hope for in $20 Prosecco, but for less! This is crisp, clear and very fresh with pretty apple and yellow pear fruit accented by notes of thyme and wild herb. The tiny bubbles give the wine a creamy feel that’s... Read More
Natural Not “really” a Pet-Nat, but definitely that vibe is in play here in this wild and frothy blend of New Zealand Chardonnay (70%) and Pinot Noir. The base wines are made separately and then blended, bottled, given... Read More
Christian Bellei is, as Vinous said recently, one of the true Lambrusco di Sorbara masters. A 4th generation Lambrusco maker, Bellei continues his father's innovation of making Lambrusco in the Champagne method - with the... Read More
Organic/Bio A super-fresh Champagne-style blend - 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir - with a short 9 months on the lees to preserve the fruit and freshness. Even so, this is remarkably toasty in aroma and flavor, which complements... Read More
A terrific value from Billecart-Salmon, this is built on Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay not used in the main cuvees including a healthy (70%) dose of reserve wines. Fine bubbles lift generous aromas of brioche, sliced almond,... Read More
