Faire La Fête Brut is from Limoux, France. A blend of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Pinot Noir, the wine is made in the traditional way, méthode traditionnelle, and aged on the lees for 15 months before release. It is a light golden in color with vibrant aromas and flavors of baked apple, white cherry and lemon meringue.
Sustainably hand-harvested, vegan-friendly, gluten free, and half the sugar of tank-fermented Prosecco.
From gourmet caviar and oysters to popcorn, Faire la Fête is a versatile wine that pairs well with a range of dishes and cuisines. Try with an Asian pear salad, spicy tuna rolls, or pork chops and applesauce.
