Wine of the Week: Domaine du Collin Crémant de Limoux Brut Cuvée Tradition

With the holiday season upon us, it is time to break out the bubbly! Domaine du Collin offers uncommon elegance and affordability in its sparkling white with a light, frothy mousse, fresh citrusy nose, medium body, both crisp and dry.  The chardonnay gives the wine its brightness and acidity, the chenin blanc adds richness, and the pinot noir adds depth.  Domaine du Collin is a bio-diverse farm in the Limoux region that produces its wines with no chemical fertilizers or weed killers.  Collin himself was raised by a vigneron in the Champagne region and brings his knowledge of champagne to Languedoc.  This is a great alternative to champagne for holiday parties.  Domaine du Collin also produces a wonderful sparkling rosé that should not be missed.
