Staff Pick Notes

Champagne is often compared to biscuits, dough, or scones. Think of this one as the berries that adorn that yeasty confection. This has a lovely aroma of summer berries as soon as you pop the bottle. The palate is creamy but, because of the acidity, also mouthwatering. The vivid berry flavors on the palate offer something succulent while remaining sophisticated. In other words you can lift your pinky with this wine but don’t feel ashamed if some gets on your shirt. It’s just a testament to the wine. Berry picking is one of the best rights of summer. It’s something everyone should experience. Though if you want to cut to the end, open this.

These winemakers control every aspect of grape cultivation and vinification, from the vine to the finished bottle, which is...
