Sparkling
La Taille aux Loups from Montlouis-sur-Loire is a stunning bubbly from the Loire Valley in central France, which is home to the great Chenin Blanc grape ? an outstanding ingredient in wines such as this lovely, lively bubbly.
It is made the same way as Champagne and costs a lot less but retains a similar style in terms of taste. This sparkling wine is made from Chenin Blanc grown in the appellation of Montlouis-sur-Loire in the Loire Valley, where chalky clay and sandy clay soils share space on top of a bedrock of limestone. Only organic fertilisers are used here and all grapes are hand harvested with bunches picked into small plastic bins then fermented to 11.5 to 12% ABV in old oak barrels using only indigenous yeasts. The first fermentation leaves residual sugar of about seven to eight grams per litre and this is adjusted to 16 to 18 grams of residual sugar per litre for the second fermentation. The wine is aged for 20 months on lees in bottle and finishes with 4 to 6 grams of residual sugar, which makes it dry in style as well as taste.
Kumeu River Pinot Noir and Chardonnay blend together to create a deliciously dry and perfectly pink cr?mant. The aromas of summer sparkle from the glass, freshly picked strawberries and white stone fruit build the texture and mouth feel we really enjoy from our Kumeu Cr?mant.
The perfect aperitif for the festive season.
Beautiful full bodied Champagne in an accessible half bottle; what a treat.
Champagne Laurent-Perrier was founded in 1812 by Andr? Michel Pierlot and took the name Vve Laurent-Perrier when Mathilde Emilie Perrier, the widow of Eug?ne Laurent, combined the two family names after she decided to expand the business.
Eug?nie Hortense Laurent, her daughter, inherited the House in 1925 and sold it to Marie-Louise Lanson de Nonancourt in 1939.
Dry champagne with dialled up toasty flavours and a relatively rare little number too since it's made entirely from Pinot Noir, hence the name Blanc de Noirs which is French for white of black and refers to a white sparkling wine made.
This bubbles represents excellent value for money as well as being an intensely refreshing, full bodied, dry champagne with toasty flavours and a savoury character. Sensational wine for a special day, any day...
One of our absolute faves here at Regional Wines. Central Otago based, Austrian born and bred winemaker Rudi Bauer is the mastermind behind the stunning wines at Quartz Reef winery, which he founded and then furthered his own career by studying biodynamics and organics. All of his Quartz Reef wines are certified by both BioGro and Demeter for biodynamic production.
The grapes for this Blanc de Blanc were hand picked and had their second fermentation in bottle followed by 60 months aging on lees. It was riddled and disgorged by hand and has refreshing citrus notes and irresistible bakery aromas which highlight the great suitability of world's southernmost wine region for sparkling wine production.
This is a great example of world class méthode traditionnelle.
Amisfield Brut is one of Central Otago's great Pinot Noirs, only in this case the grapes were gently crushed and the skins removed immediately in order to make a white wine with bubbles, modelled on champagne.
All of the grapes were hand picked and the wine went through its second fermentation in bottle where it spent 18 months on yeast lees, retaining freshness, gaining full bodied, yeasty, toasty aromas. It's dry with five grams of residual sugar per litre and a long, refreshing finish thanks to crisp acidity which adds drive and length to every tasty sip.
This wine represents outstanding value for money and shines another light on Pinot Noir from the deep south.
The latest Bolly Rose is a deliciously powerful, full bodied and savoury champagne made from 62% Pinot Noir, 24% Chardonnay and 14% Meunier with five to six per cent red wine added for colour (standard practice in the Champagne region).
Grapes in this deliciously dry tasting Bollinger Rose were grown on predominantly Grand and Premiers cru vineyards. The wine was aged for more three years on lees in bottle, prior to disgorgement, which provides depth and body to this delicious wine.
House of Bollinger
Bollinger was founded in 1829 in A? by Hennequin de Villermont, Paul Renaudin and Jacques Bollinger, the house continues to be run by members of the Bollinger family.
The Cuve?e Royale Brut is a superbly intense champagne with depth of flavour and complex tastes of white peach, floral notes of white flowers giving way to the fruity ones and dialled up yeasty freshness, derived from 36 months aging with 20% reserve wines in the blend. The cepage is 35% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Meunier and grapes come from over 20 different top ranking vineyards, including at Cumie?res, Damery, Hautvillers and Verneuil.
What the critics say
?Vanilla shortbread seems seductive on the nose. Slender but fine palate majors on the lemon, spice, and hints of honey in a soothing and gentle fashion. Lovely aperitif. Drinking Window 2020 to 2025.?
Decanter - 90 Points
One of our best selling bubblies and for great reason' this is a stunner with creamy smooth flavours and gorgeous zesty bubbles. This sparkling wine is made 100% from Chardonnay grapes grown in Hawke's Bay, which were trucked down to the northern Wairarapa winery, Matahiwi Estate, where winemaker Miles Dineen worked his magic to produce this dreamy creamy bubbly.
This wine is made in the mould of a blanc de blancs (white of whites) champagne, using Chardonnay grapes from the Dartmoor Valley in Hawke's Bay. The wine gains its richness from lees ageing, which enhances creaminess and yeasty aromatics. It's a deliciously lemon citrusy wine with depth, complexity and character - outstanding value at the price.
Gold Digger Frizzante comes from Central Otago which is home to many of New Zealand's best sparkling wines.
This product comes in two styles; ros? (made entirely from Pinot Noir) and Pinot Gris. Both lightly bubbly and in 440ml cans - the ideal size for an apertif for two people or as a couple of drinks for one person.
A winner in so many ways from its dry, full bodied, zing to its outstanding freshness - this wine is released regularly as a freshly disgorged bottle of bubbles that pays homage to both Maori language with its lovely name; MiruMiru is Maori for bubbles, and also to French winemaking tradition. This blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier is made the same way as champagne. It spends 12 to 18 months on yeast lees and is freshly disgorged to retain its complexity and zing.
Hunter's MiruMiru won top prize for New Zealand wines at the Champagne and Sparkling Wine World Championships for the third year in a row in 2023.
