Tasting Notes for Charles Frey NV Crémant Extra Brut

This vintage of Crémant Extra Brut from Charles Frey is a well-balanced, fresh, and lively sparkling wine showcasing aromas of ripe white fruits, toasted brioche, subtle nutty notes, and a citrus freshness. There is a classic feel to this, with some added sulphites keeping it in the classic style of natural. The kind of natural wine which you could give to your grandparents and they would not know it was, but it is (if you know what we mean with this classic, low intervention style)

 On the palate, it offers a fine and energetic mousse. The extended 30 months of ageing on the lees contributes additional fruitiness, complexity, and a delicate texture, resulting in a wine that is elegant
