Light, fine, delicate bubbles from Gamay noir with white juice. This cuvée will put everyone in agreement. The delicate nose blossoms with aromas of raspberry and redcurrant, lightly lemony. Creamy and light on the palate, with a fine balance between freshness and sweetness. An original, gourmand and fruity bubble, to be enjoyed chilled as an aperitif or with a chocolate dessert such as a black forest.

Domaine rated (2024 guide) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the domain :

Les Vins de la Madone is one of the most exciting experiences in Côtes du Forez, a discreet appellation located between Saint-Étienne and Clermont-Ferrand, at the gateway to the Livradois-Forez natural park. Gilles Bonnefoy strives to capture the sparkling purity of fruit, both in his Gamay reds and in his whites (IGP d'Urfé), a Roussanne and a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris. This radiance, drawn from granite and volcanic soils, is achieved through biodynamic vineyard management (certified in 2008) and vinification partly in whole bunches, with ageing exclusively in vats. The star of this domaine is firmly set.
