This Crémant works beautifully as an apéritif on its own

and a splash of passion fruit juice amplifies the wine's fruit-forward character

In a crowded field of whipped-cream vodkas

and restrained oak makes it enjoyable neat

with lingering strawberry candy and a slight tannic grip from the brief skin maceration
