Indulge in the effervescent delight of Saint Meyland Crémant de Bordeaux Brut, a sparkling wine hailing from the renowned Bordeaux region of France. Crafted with a blend of classic Bordeaux grapes – Semillon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot – this Crémant offers a captivating experience for the senses.
Saint-Meyland is known for its commitment to quality, and this sparkling wine is no exception. The blend of grapes creates a unique flavor profile, different from traditional champagne, with a delicate complexity.
The wine is crafted in the traditional method, where secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle, creating the fine bubbles that dance on your tongue. It's a Brut, meaning it's dry, with just a hint of sweetness to balance the acidity.
On the nose, you'll discover a bouquet of fresh citrus aromas, intertwined with notes of white flowers and a hint of brioche, all signs of the bottle fermentation. The palate is lively and refreshing with a persistent mousse and flavors of lemon, green apple and a subtle toasted bread notes that give depth and texture. The balance of acidity and fruit makes it very enjoyable.
With an alcohol content of 12%, this wine is best served chilled at 8°C. The bottle is sealed with a traditional cork, preserving the sparkling nature of the wine. No additional rest is needed, it's ready to be enjoyed immediately.
Saint-Meyland is a small, family-owned winery which has been making wine for generations. Their focus on tradition and passion can be tasted in every bottle. This Crémant is a testament to their commitment to producing high-quality wines.
This versatile sparkling wine makes it a perfect aperitif, or a celebration wine, but also it would be an amazing match for a seafood platter, light appetizers, or goat cheese salad. Its crispness cuts through the richness of creamy sauces and will match well with delicate fish preparations. Consider this wine with a lightly fried tempura, or with oysters to make the perfect match.
Treat yourself to a bottle of Saint Meyland Crémant de Bordeaux Brut, and experience a taste of Bordeaux’s bubbly side.
