DESCRIPTION: The Cuvée Léonie Brut is seductive and elegant.  To the eye, pale gold. To the nose, lightly stewed yellow fruits, tropical fruits, dry flowers, and notes of gingerbread. On the palate, fresh with flavours of pineapple confit, slightly spicy, toasted flavors.

 

ALLERGENS: Contains Sulphites

 

PAIRING: White asparagus and chive cream. Gingerbread-crusted sea bass. Chicken supreme with summer truffles.

 

PAIRING WITH OUR LOCAL FOODS: Champagne, especially brut with its fizziness and acidity, heightens the heat in our chili sauces and based dishes. We recommend this cuvée with our Chicken in lemon butter sauce, Asanka kontomire with palm-oil and avocado slices as this has no tomatoe and the acidity will cut through the oil, Pork chops.

 

MORE INFORMATION: A word from our Cellar Master, Laurent Fédou: “Cuvée Léonie is an elegant champagne. Freshness and exoticism are its hallmarks."
