  • NV François Labet Crémant de Bourgogne Brut - France, Burgundy, Crémant de Bourgogne (10/21/2012)
    This is actually pretty good for the money. $15 locally in Austin. I think it justifies its existence very easily at that price tag. It’s dry, it’s bubbly, and it doesn’t have any off flavors. My wife thought it might have been a touch “fruity”, but I actually didn’t taste that. The sparkler clearly doesn’t measure up to Champagne though. I am leaning more and more in favor of buying only Champagne and opening them more selectively rather than buying this kind of sparkler and opening it more liberally. YMMV.
