Sebastien Brunet, Vouvray Methode Traditionnelle Brut

The wine pours into an all-purpose stem with great vigor and unleashes a frothy mousse that takes about 10 seconds to settle down. Following a few gentle swirls, delicate ripe aromas began wafting out in the form of apricot, peach, green apple skin, yellow apple slices, citrus peel, crushed rock, flint, and orange peel with a slight almond skin nuttiness. The medium-bodied palate is supple and generously fruited but a strong mineral presence dominates on the mid-palate before crescendoing with a crash of mouthwatering acidity. The ultimate brunch wine, sparkling Vouvray is well suited to all kinds of cheese, especially goat cheeses, souffle, quiche, charcuterie, even sourdough French toast or crepes, both savory and lightly sweet.
“Mid gold. Zesty Cox’s apple juice on the nose. Pretty marked frothiness but lovely pure Chenin Blanc flavors with marked acidity, as well as just a teeny bit of honey. There’s a little suggestion of chewiness on the admirably long, very clean finish This would make a great-value change from a champagne – but you do have to know and love Chenin.”  – Jancis Robinson
