Lafont Cremant de bourgogne 20NV
Meet Lafont's sparkling white wine: a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, all from France, and it's a non-vintage bottling. A quick word on the grape: Chardonnay is the world's most famous white grape, remarkably versatile, ranging from crisp and citrusy when unoaked to rich and buttery with notes of apple, pear and, when oak-aged, vanilla and toast. It's joined by Pinot Noir — a delicate, thin-skinned red grape famed for its silky texture and bright flavors of red cherry, raspberry and earthy, savory undertones. It's from Burgundy, the legendary French home of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. It's a brilliant aperitif and a natural with oysters, fried snacks and good news worth toasting. Serve it ice-cold.
