TsarineChampagne Cuvée Premium Brut
About this product
Tsarine is made by Chanoine Frères, which was founded in 173; only the house of Ruinart is older. The Tsarine Cuvee Champagne was originally created in honour of the Russian tsars, since Russia was a major export market for champagne in the nineteenth century. The cepage is approximately 33% pinot noir, 33% pinot meuniere and 34% chardonnay. Golden hues highlight the aspect of this cuvée, imparting brightness and elegance. Delicate effervescence is enhanced by a chorus of fine bubbles. Aromas are expressed gradually on notes of mirabelle plum and freshly picked grape blossoms. Yellow fruit flavours – peach, apricot and nectarine – gradually blend with those of bitter orange, producing a well-balanced wine with remarkable breadth that finishes on lemony notes.
