This delicious bubbly -- mostly Chenin Blanc, plus 10% Chardonnay -- mixes spicy yeast with clove and herb scents. Full-bodied fruit flavors follow, with a slight hint of candied sweetness. The finish wraps you in hints of vanilla and light toast. |
Bouvet Signature Brut
|
|
|
A richer and slightly darker color than the Verna’s pinot noir, this wine exhibits more red and black fruits such as currants, cassis and plum. Spice aromatics stretch the gamut from clove and incense to sandalwood and orange-spice tea. Earthy elements of pomegranate, red beets, brine and minerals also shine through. The mouthfeel is plush and velvety with excellent presence while countered by a structural backbone of acidity giving the wine completeness and resolve . |
