Tasting - Chandon Sweet Cuvee


Name: Chandon Sweet Cuvee
Variety: Champagne Blend
Region: California
Country: US
Year: NV
Price: $9.95

Shop Review: This wine is an innovative sparkling wine style revealing vibrant stone fruit and floral aromas with rich, luscious mouthfeel. The wine enlivens the senses and sparks spontaneous moments, complementing your passion for a good life (Vintage Cellar).

Personal Review: The nose of the Chandon Sweet Cuvee had an extremely soft nose that was in general floral. However, nothing in particular stood out other than that. Upon tasting it, my first instinct was “Whoa!” It was extremely sparkly and bubbly. I felt like I was drinking a soda that was too carbonated and needed to be shook in order to release some of the carbonation. Aside from the bubbliness, the wine was well balanced in terms of sweetness. It started out somewhat dry and then finished sweeter with the bubbles. 

Food: N/A
