Cuvee Royale Cremant de Limoux Brut Tasting Notes by Wine Expert, David Andrews, DipWSET
Cremant is one of those sparkling wines edging its way into the Champagne market. It has the flavour and body without the price tag. Not to mention, cheap Champagne is often still more expensive and almost always far worse than Cremant! This one from Limoux is a great example of how well Cremant matches up to Champagne. You'll find the rich notes of brioche and biscuit from some time spent on lees, which is given a fresh lift by the citrus fruits and acidity.
