Cremant refers to French sparkling wine made in the traditional method outside of Champagne and is specific to a handful of regions. This one, from Burgundy, has a soft effervescence, is creamy and rich showing good complexity. A full, crisp style, exhibiting quality, cool climate Chardonnay fruit.

Richly perfumed with the mouth-watering aromas of freshly toasted sourdough, custard danish and home-baked yoyo biscuit. The zesty perfume of lemon curd and citrus zest is complemented by a hint of oceanic oyster shell and sea spray. The persistent bead drives the long and elegant palate which is creamy yet crisp, with rich flavours of honey-almond nougat and citrus tarts, complemented by a slate-like minerality and the zesty zing of acidity akin to a freshly picked lemon.

A boutique wine brand from New Zealands iconic Marlborough region, Hawkesbridge brings to life sophisticated sparkling wines, created to honour the regions legacy for quality and flavour. Chardonnay-dominant and traditionally-made, this vintage Méthode has seen three years on lees prior to disgorging. Complexity, texture and persistence define this elegant wine. A spark on entry leads to a lovely weighty palate, checked by refined acid tension that delivers elegance and an incredibly long, persistent finish. The bead is very fine, giving an endearing lightness. Red apple, roasted hazelnut and buttered toast with warm bready yeast notes.

For those of you that already know and love Cave de Lugny's Sparklings, you'll fall head over heels for this wine! Lots of complexity for the price; perfumed with sour cherry, ruby-red grapefruit, orange peel and a hint of pineapple. Light-bodied and delicate, with a beautiful, tiny mousse and a lengthy, dry finish. Great for fruit and cheese platters.

Prosecco Col Fondo, which means ‘with its lees-sediment’, is one of our handmade originals and a bit of a cavedon wines classic! It’s a cloudy style prosecco and up there with one of our favourite ways of drinking the variety. It offers up more character and depth than the modern classic prosecco, but is still light, fun and easy drinking. Think dry, cloudy, sourdough and lemon curd. Grown by us and made by Gabe using the traditional champagne method, col fondo is fermented in the bottle itself. It’s aged on its lees for 18 months before release, giving it that classic sourdough-like aroma you get from slowly made sparkling. Although it has complexity with age, it has loads of vibrancy and freshness with delicate aromatics. Part of the magic in the slow process, is the fine bubble it produces, along with a great balance between natural acidity and a creamy palate. The dry, savoury edge also makes it a standout for food pairing.
