Domaine Jean Perrier Crémant de Savoie NV

One of the newer French sparkling wine appellations Crémant de Savoie is made in the methode traditionelle with 85% of the grape being the local variety, Jacquère with the remainder being Chardonnay. Around 8 to 10 grammes per litre of 'liqueur de dosage' is added which gives it a nicely soft and rounded mouthfeel. In all it's chock full of bright, zingy fruit flavours giving it a real personality.

A very appealing sparkler that's not completely bone dry it makes a great aperitif and is also great with desserts.

Jean Perrier et Fils has been a family-run estate since 1853, handed down through seven generations. Nestled in the town of Les Marches, near Chambéry in Savoy, they’ve always championed Savoyard wines and grape varieties. Once overlooked outside of the region, these wines are now gaining recognition further afield. Notable among their offerings are the Vin de Savoie Apremont and Abymes, both made from the region’s flagship grape, Jacquère. Their Crémant de Savoie also enjoys high praise.
