Description We've offered this gold-standard Crémant for over two decades and the multitude of awards, not to mention the pages of 5-star reviews, speak volumes. It's our bestselling fizz by a mile. Winemaker Viviane Gianesini works her magic beneath the cool hills of Limoux. Here, the monks of Saint Hilaire are said to have mastered sparkling wine methods in 1531, centuries ahead of Dom Pérignon. Bottles back then were fragile and didn’t travel, so their success remained a secret. Viviane's cuvée is rich in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir (like Champagne) and nearly half the wine is oak fermented (just like Krug)! It’s an expensive technique, yet important for developing the creamy depth and complexity you'd expect of a fine Crémant. A treat any time.
