Summer lovin’: Chandon Brut unveils a limited edition bottle

With the impending heat around the corner-and that mid-year blues-it’s the best time to start planning for a pool party or a beach vacation. Then again, we never really need a reason to do both but one thing’s for sure, you can’t do it without the perfect summer drink: Chandon Brut.

 

Served chilled, the refreshing burst of bubbles is fragrant with fresh aromas of apple sorbet, orchard blossoms and lemon zest with subtle characters of brioche and fresh sourdough. Once on the palate, the reins are led by the classic Chardonnay pears and its gentle creamy texture, zesty acidity and complex hints of nougat soon settles down to a long, dry and refreshing finish. 

This complexity stems from the large diversity of vineyard locations where the Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes were selected from a range of premium cool climate vineyards in the southern wine regions of Australia. Hence, in terms of food pairing, it’s a perfect match for oysters, seared scallops, lobster salad, zucchini flowers with Yarra Valley goats’ cheese and soft wine cheeses. 

 

While the taste of the Chandon Brut is undeniably enough to win us over, a sexy bottle wrapped in eye-catching nautical coloured stripes certainly does add to its charm. The exclusive #ChandonSummer bottle is now available in a 750ml for a limited time only.
