Sainsbury’s Brut Non Vintage Champagne

Posted by

This champagne, crafted by Louis Kremer Champagne House, uses 20% reserve wines in its blend.

“Salty, nutty notes are joined by intense green apple fruit on the nose. A green cooking apple character on the palate sits alongside roasted nuts and a lively acid backbone. It has a wonderful vibrancy that makes this a useful aperitif option.”
90 out of 100, Decanter

Comprising the classic mix of Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir grapes, it tastes of fresh peach and has a distinct buttery taste, though not to the extent of, for instance, NV Bollinger or NV Lanson. The long finish and strong mousse contribute to its appeal. At around £20, it represents good value.
