Domaine de la Bretauche NV (750ml)

Pale straw with a fine, lively mousse, Domaine de la Bretauche’s Méthode Traditionnelle opens with fresh, inviting aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and white flowers, underscored by hints of biscuit and almond. The palate is crisp and vibrant, offering flavours of citrus, pear, and toasted brioche over a clean mineral core. Secondary fermentation in bottle lends a creamy mousse and subtle autolytic complexity, while brisk acidity provides clarity and lift. The finish is dry, refreshing, and gently saline, with lingering notes of orchard fruit and pastry. A charming and well-made sparkling wine—approachable yet refined, delivering classic méthode traditionnelle character with southern French charm.
