You know the bottle. Matte gold, no label, the one people hold up for the photo. Inside is a proper French sparkler that actually tastes good cold and fizzy on a Friday: green apple, a squeeze of citrus, a soft warm bready note that stops it being just sharp. This one lands in a gift box with chocolate, so it's basically a present you can hand over and not think twice about. Whack it in the fridge, pop it tonight, look like you planned ahead.
Pale gold in the glass with a steady stream of fine little bubbles. First sniff is fresh and orchardy: crisp green apple, lemon and lime zest, a bit of white peach. Underneath there's a warm bakery thing going on, that toasty brioche note you get from proper sparkling wine, which rounds off the edges. It's a Brut, so it's dry, not sweet. The fruit gives you a hint of sweetness on the way in, then it finishes clean and crisp with enough acidity to keep you coming back. Easy to like, harder to put down.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Luc Belaire is made in Burgundy, the same patch of France that takes its bubbles very seriously, from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. It's crafted by the Piffaut family, a winemaking lot who've been at it for generations, and the dosage uses organic sugarcane in a nod to the wines of 1920s France. The brand blew up worldwide off the back of that signature matte-gold, label-free bottle, which is exactly why it shows up at every party and in every photo. Pretty face, real wine behind it.
