WHY DOES THIS WINE EARN 100 POINTS? It has everything going against it….
It is our job at Cree Wine to bring you these unsung gems, and this is one of the best. It is made from two unsung grape varieties - 70% Gamay and 20% Poulsard.
They are grown in a backwater appellation of the Savoie region in the foothills of the Alps.
It’s PINK, bubbly, and decidedly slightly sweet….….with a amazing nose of vibrant red
fruits that follow onto the fine bubbly palate.
It leads off with bright lively fruity sweetness, accentuated by its fine bubbles. Then its fresh acidity kicks in exploding like you popped a handful of fresh ripe strawberries, raspberries, and cranberries into your mouth, and the wine finishes a bit dryer then expected.
It’s palate cleansing and mind blowingly delicious, with natural low alcohol that renders it perfect for warm afternoons and evenings, perfect for summer.
BUT it’s great all year long too - buy enough for the holiday season!
Before you write it off you owe it to yourself to try this amazing wine.
It is THE one wine that those who think they will hate it absolutely fall in love with - and buy the most!
It is now allocated and hard to get and sells out soon after arrival.
It earns its 100 Point Cree Wine score for its traditional authenticty, and defiant uniqueness - a naturally made sparkling wine employing the Methode Ancestral that pre-dates the Champagne methode.
It is deliciously compelling, perfect with all kinds of desserts but especially custards, flans, and tarts, with fresh fruit, apple, peach, strawberry rhubard pies, and all on its own.
