Since 1886, Grandin has produced excellent quality sparkling from the Loire Valley in France. It is made by the Methode Traditionelle method which is identical to the method used in Champagne. It sports crisp, fresh flavours of citrus, nuts and spice. It can be drunk on its own or to match a wide range of foods. It's also an excellent quality base for a large range of summer cocktails. It's a great all-rounder and certainly one not to be missed at this price. Sante!

"This vivacious bubbly, from a long-established Loire Valley producer, is made by the classic methode traditionnelle technique. Light lemon/green, with an eruption of small bubbles, it is fresh and lively, with good delicacy and depth. Very easy to enjoy, it offers plenty of citrusy, appley, slightly yeasty and toasty flavour and an appetisingly crisp finish." Michael Cooper, Wine Writer NZ
