Charles Griffon & Pol Rene
Compagnie Française des Grands Vins (CFGV) was founded in 1909 further
to the discovery by Eugène CHARMAT of the second natural fermentation
in cuve. With over 100 years of history and know-how, Compagnie Française des
Grands Vins is today the largest sparkling wines producer in France.
The Charmat “Cuve Close” Method was invented in 1907 by Eugène Charmat. Our sparkling wine is produced according to the Charmat process by second natural fermentation in cuve close. The base wines are carefully selected and treated before fermentation. Then they receive an addition of sugar and yeasts creating the formation of bubbles. After fermentation, the wines are filtered before bottling. The base wines chosen for the elaboration of our “Charmat Method” sparkling wine have been delicately chosen for their bouquet of freshness, thus guaranteeing the finesse of their aromas.

TASTING NOTES | A pale yellow robe with bright glints. With a thin cordon of bubble. Fresh and fruity nose (white flesh fruit) or even flowery nose (white flowers). Really light notes of fermentation. A fresh wine with a good support of acidity. A fine bead and an ethereal bouquet with hints of apple and citrus fruit carry thought to the palate and there is balanced but mouth-tingling acidity which enhances the lingering finish.
FOOD PAIRINGS | Perfect as an aperitif with starters or accompany your seafood or white meat meals.
GRAPE VARIETY | Ugni Blanc
