Stunning value and stunning wine. From esteemed Champagne house Moutard comes this fantastic cremant. Made using Methode Traditionelle, just like Champagne, this Pinot noir rose sparkling comes from the Chablis area - halfway between Champagne and Burgundy - and offering the class of both. This is for those moments when you want Pink Champagne without the price tag. Fabulous. 

Distinctive black cherry notes, with herbal and subtle tobacco aromas. Vibrant in acidity but well balanced. Light and juicy in texture with supple tannins and a sour cherry twist on the finish.

Refreshing and interesting wine, with an appealing white pepper and dill character. Gently spicy, lively and rounded, with subtle apple notes over a savoury-mineral character. Great match to dishes using broccoli, cauliflower and kale where it compliments the mustardy character perfectly.

A delicious organic rose from the heartland of Cotes de Provence.  Lovely creamy texture, with fresh grapefruit, peach, and strawberry aromas that follow through on the palate. Very gastronomic, with good body and refreshing acidity. Outstanding quality at this price. 12.5% abv
