About Champagne
Champagne has been associated with royalties since the 17th century, still maintaining its glorious reputation.
The French take Champagne seriously, so coming from the Champagne region of France isn't the only requirement that keeps this drink from being "just sparkling wine." The rules of the appellation require specific vineyard practices, particular types of grapes, specific pressing methods, and secondary fermentation of wine.

The silvery gold cuveé opens with floral, fruity, buttery brioche, and vanilla aromas on the nose. The palate is light, creamy, floral, and fresh with linden blossom, pear, mandarin, and grapefruit zest, leading to a rich and lingering finish.
