Complices De Loire Sparkling Wine
Small lot Loire bubbles, hand picked in Commack.
The story behind Complices De Loire
Loire sparkling wine is made by the traditional method, the same second fermentation in bottle that gives Champagne its fine bead. The grapes are Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc, picked a touch early to keep the acidity bright. The result is a leaner, more citrus driven style than Champagne, with green apple, quince and a chalky finish, and it usually costs a fraction of the famous stuff.
We stock Complices De Loire in Commack in very small quantity, one to two bottles at a time, so what you see is what we have.
