Why We Love It...
Brut Blanc de Noirs Champagne almost never comes in under $30...but not today! From the Remy family’s revered parcels throughout the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Bars comes an amazing pinot-based Champagne that seriously delivers!
Antoine Derigny is crafted by the Bernard Remy Champagne estate, with Bernard’s son, Rudy, steering the course of these wines since 2008. The estate is located in the village of Allemant on the Cóte des Blancs, not far from the big and bustling cities of Reims and Epernay. With over 11 hectares of vines throughout the Montagne de Reims, the Vallée de Marne, and Aube in the Côte des Bars, Rudy thoughtfully composes his blends by weaving the flavors, textures, and aromatic complexities of myriad lots of pinot noir into this brilliant bubbly.
Cooling, rich, and lively, this is bursting with summer orchard fruits of pear and apples, with quince preserves and spiced apple butter. A toasty breadbasket titillating with butter cookies, ginger, and pear tarts rounds out the flavors – immensely satisfying and warm to the very last drop. We don’t have a ton of this, and at 40% off...you’re gonna want to load up while you can!
