Champagne Charles de Cazanove | Tradition Tete de Cuvee Brut Glitter - NV

The fine bubbles form a large string against a golden background. A fruity nose and delicious, persistent barley sugar and brioche flavors. A very lively wine that is very versatile. This is a bright, easygoing Champagne for any party!

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: A touch of smokiness and plum fruit on the nose. Lovely lemon and savoury contrast on the palate with a whiff of white pepper, vivid freshness, and resonance.

• James Suckling: This Champagne offers an array of flavor, including toasted brioche, Gala apple, lemon zest, graphite and ginger, with a touch of honey. Elegant, but with good intensity and a moderate, nut-tinged finish.

Producer Information

Champagne Charles de Cazanove, though now based in Reims, was founded in Avizé, in the Côte des Blancs subregion of Champagne, in 1811 by Charles Gabriel de Cazanove – a 24-year-old glassmaker. Nearly one hundred years later, mirroring the royal patronage of many Champagne houses of the late 19th Century, King Edward VII of England was having stock specially imported from France with his own personal label. From the 1950s the Martini and Rossi company gained increasing control of the house. It was owned by Moët and Chandon from 1983 to 1985 before being sold to an Epernay distributor. In 2004, it was purchased by the Rapeneau family, owners of the GH Martel Champagne house. It now falls within the wider GH Martel group. The Charles de Cazanove portfolio cosists of three basic tiers of wines, which are topped by the Grand Apparat cuvée and the deluxe Stradivarius range. Grand Apparat is a predominantly Pinot Noir-based Champagne Blend (with over 50 percent Pinot Noir, 30 percent Chardonnay and just over ten percent Pinot Meunier) while Stradivarius is Chardonnay-dominant (roughly 70 percent Chardonnay to 30 percent Pinot Noir). In addition, chef de cave Christophe Rapeneau makes a sibling range labelled as Champagne Vieille France, which is now marketed separately but is often listed as a sub-brand of Charles de Cazanove.
