Tasting Note: A brut sparkling wine with finesse.

Pale-intensity lemon in color this wine has a nose of lemon citrus, yeast, green apple and biscuit.

On the palate the dry, medium-bodied sparkling wine delivers yeast and green fruit flavors suggested on the nose.

Made from the noble chardonnay and pinot noir grape varieties, Le Lude Brut embraces flavors of citrus, apple and white flowers in a cloak of fine, life-affirming bubbles. An optimal maturation time ensures the wine’s freshness and zest are complemented by the depth and complexity expected of a classic sparkling wine whose appeal is truly timeless.
