Charles de Cazanove Cuvée Cazanova Champagne Brut NV (France)

Description

• Dry style
• Nectarine & apple
• Baguette crust
• Creamy texture

"Creamy-textured Champagne with pronounced nutty/baguette crust yeast autolysis character. A wine that combines freshness with maturity. Pinot noir appears to be the dominant grape variety, contributing palate weight and a chocolate box character. Very good value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Nov 2022

"Gorgeously styled and expressed, showing white flesh nectarine, apple, lemon peel and yeasty aromas on the nose, leading to a finely flowing palate that’s beautifully layered with a refined texture and complex flavours. Wonderfully harmonious and creamy with a persistent delicious finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2022

"New Zealand wine drinkers love soft, rich, bold-flavoured Champagne and that’s why I have introduced this generous wine assembled from 50% Pinot Meunier from the Marne Valley, 40% Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims and 10% Chardonnay from Côte des Blancs to deliver immediate drinking pleasure and incredible value for money" Steve Bennett, Master of Wine, Importer
