We find the finesse of the bubbles combined with the greed and fruitiness provided by the duo of grape varieties that are accomplices for this cuvée: Cabernet franc and Grolleau.

TASTING NOTES
A freshly baked blueberry tart will particularly enjoy the company of the “Préambule”. The freshness of the wine contrasts with the richness of the dessert and accompanies the acidity of the blueberry.
