Demi-sec Champagnes have a perceptible sweetness to them however are not technically dessert Champagnes. That being said, this comes from the remarkable producer with vines planted in the chalky soils of the region. The fruit comes from the Grand Cru village of Chouilly and we couldn't find a more appropriate terroir to balance the residual sugar.

Staff Pick Notes

Demi-sec Champagne is essentially bottled joy. The sensuous and lively bubbles paired with an old-school touch of perceptible sugar truly lift my spirits. The greatest part of it all is that this works exceedingly well at the table. Grab your favorite dishes with a bit of a spicy kick, and you have a match! This is entirely Chardonnay and sings with bright acidity, pears, citrus, a touch of toast, and an alluring slight sweetness.

The acidity of Champagne marries beautifully with a touch of residual sugar, and this bottle is for both savory and sweet!

These winemakers control every aspect of grape cultivation and vinification, from the vine to the finished bottle, which is...

Chardonnay

From Champagne to Chablis, it's hard (not to mention unpleasant) to avoid this famous white variety. During a huge popularity surge beginning in the late 1980s, Chardonnay plantings have increased dramatically -- not only in California's wine country, with which the variety is nearly synonymous, but also in Burgundy (its original, Old World home) and just about everywhere else in the winemaking world. It is a flexible, eager-to-please grape, responding well to just about anything a winemaker...
