Introducing BLT's Wine of the Week (No.10)

Crémant de Loire
AOC Crémant de Loire
Domaine de la Paleine

For Christmas week Gérald has selected the Crémant de Loire from Domaine de la Paleine, as his festive and sparkling wine of the week.

Harvested by hand and produced at the Domaine the crémant is handled and rest sur-latte for a minimum of 24 months during which time the Domaine uses one of the oldest methods for opening the sparkly - dégorgement à al volée.

80% chardonnay & 20% chenin the Crémant de Loire is a deliciously fresh and light sparkling wine with elegant bubbles. Perfect served alone as an apéritif or alongside grilled or baked fish.

Domaine de la Paleine’s Crémant de Loire is also available from The Wine Shop & Tasting Room in Brighton.
