Roche Lacour Cuvée de Réserve 2016

Roche Lacour is our bestselling sparkler by a mile. The winemaker Viviane Gianesini works her magic beneath the cool hills of Limoux. Here the monks of Saint Hilaire are said to have mastered sparkling wine methods in 1531 centuries ahead of Dom Pérignon. Bottles then were fragile and didn’t travel so their success remained a secret. This special edition cuvée rich in Chardonnay like Champagne and oak fermented just like Krug was long lees aged in bottle and has only just been disgorged. The result is toasty complexity and length like great Champagne. Chill and find reason to celebrate.
