Dry and smooth, with lovely Chardonnay creaminess, this blanc de blanc made in the traditional méthode champenoise, has tiny pinpoint bubbles, a nice, green-gold glint and a very seductive and yeasty, exotic mushroom quality.

Here’s a Cabernet that will grow on you, revealing both rich and subtle flavors that expand on the palate.
