Sparkling · Light · Dry

Méthode champenoise from the most chalk-rich corner of France — fine bubbles, brioche, lemon zest, and a finish that goes on for half a minute. The wine for anything fried, salty, or special.

Champagne White Sparkling's gentle sweetness and bubbles lift Caramel Custard Or Crème Brûlée without overwhelming it — especially fruit-based desserts.

Gaillac White

Adventurous

White · Medium · Dry

A small Southwest French appellation with an outsized range — dry whites from native grapes, traditional-method sparkling, and quietly serious reds. Curious wines, all of them.

Why it works with Caramel Custard Or Crème Brûlée

Sauternes

Classic

Dessert · Full · Sweet

Bordeaux's legendary sweet white — Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc hit by noble rot, then patiently fermented. Honey, apricot, candied citrus, and a finish that lasts a small eternity. Pair with foie gras, blue cheese, or a fruit tart.
