Delheim Brut 2000

Gentle whole bunch pressing ensures that only the highest quality juice is extracted and very little extraction from the skins occur. The nose shows ripe biscuity red grape fruit flavours and the soft yeasty bouquet of freshly baked bread. The mousse is extremely fine and creamy on the palate enhancing the wonderful nutty, biscuit flavours.

Enjoy as an aperitif. Delicious with fresh oysters or paté. Excellent with lighter soup courses and ideal to accompany dessert as it is perfect to clean the palate. The 2000 Delheim Brut is excellent to enjoy with food and to celebrate a special occasion.
