Monmousseau – Crémant de Loire – Brut

Lýsing

Beautiful, clear, yellow color with delicate bubble. The bouquet reveals itself with hints of yellow fruit, a touch of grenadine and hints of toasted bread. Nice balance between fruit obtained by Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc, with the Chenin providing a delicious touch of citrus. Refreshing and nicely balanced, dry finish.

It is of course first and foremost a refined aperitif that tastes like no other with a tasty oyster, but it also pairing with a traditional goat cheese or a Saint Maure de Touraine and just as much as a digestif with a lemon tart.
