Sparkling Wine
Sparkling wine is defined by its lively effervescence, crisp acidity, and elegant character. Crafted from white or red grape varieties, it offers aromas of citrus, green apple, stone fruit, and floral notes, often complemented by brioche or almond tones from ageing. Styles range from bone-dry Extra Brut and Brut to fruitier, slightly sweet Demi-Sec, each with its own balance of freshness and flavor. Versatile and refined, sparkling wine suits any celebration, aperitif, or food pairing moment.
