Item No. 706
winemaker's notes:

Demi-Sec is blended largely from Pinot Noir with Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier as well as reserve wines. The liqueur d'expédition (carefully prepared and dosed with 45 g per litre by our oenologists) gives it a sweeter yet still very fresh harmony. Demi-Sec is at its best when served with desserts. You could even serve it in a carafe, not to decant it but to admire the colour and the delicate bubbles of this elegant wine.

Nice choice to serve when you don't know if your guests prefer sweet or dry. Was delicious after dinner with a bit of chocholate. (Didn't have any strawberries handy, and prefer drinking campagne AFTER dinner rather than before.)

The first real Champagne I have had that was worth the price. I am usually a fan of higher end California sparkling, etc., but this went the extra mile (or extra kilometer).

I love it! It's so drinkable, I usualy polish off a bottle while doing the laundry. If I didn't think I'd drink it in a week, I'd buy it by the case!

A Customer - Phoenix, AZ
I was convinced to buy Demi-Sec over the Yellow label Veuve Clicquot by a wine expert at a grocery store. The yellow label had been a long time favorite of my girlfriend that I planed on sharing the bottle with. We were both immensely pleased with the wine’s qualities. The Demi-Sec had intense bubbles that persisted all the way to the back of the tongue. Although most reviews of the wine suggest it as a desert wine, we both thought it paired well with our shrimp and swordfish meals. This was one of the most enjoyable wines I’ve ever had.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
