Darling Cellars MCC Blanc de Blanc Brut (Case of 6)

Description

The Purity of Chardonnay

In the world of MCC, “Blanc de Blanc” (White from White) is a title reserved for sparklers made entirely from white grapes. Darling Cellars utilizes their cool-climate Chardonnay vineyards to ensure the grapes retain a piercing, fresh acidity. This acidity is the backbone of the wine, allowing it to age beautifully while maintaining its vibrant, energetic character.

Tasting Profile & Sensory Experience

A refined and multi-layered bubbly that prioritizes freshness and finesse:

• The Appearance: Brilliant lime-gold with an incredibly fine, dancing stream of bubbles.

• The Nose: An elegant bouquet of bright lemon zest, crisp green apple, and white blossoms, layered with complex hints of freshly baked bread and toasted nuts.

• The Palate: Piercingly fresh on entry. The creamy mousse carries flavors of citrus cream and pear, balanced by a distinct chalky minerality and a sharp, clean structure.

• The Finish: Exceptionally long and dry, leaving a refreshing trail of lime and a sophisticated savory “biscuit” note.

Why Stock a Case of 6?

• The Connoisseur’s Choice: While Rosé is fun and Nectar is sweet, the Blanc de Blanc is the “serious” bubbly preferred by wine purists.

  • Fresh Oysters: A classic, unbeatable pairing.

  • Grilled Sea Bass: Complements delicate white fish perfectly.

  • Creamy Poultry: Cuts through the richness of a chicken alfredo or roast turkey.

• Winter Luxury: Even in the colder months, a Blanc de Blanc serves as a brilliant palate cleanser before a heavy winter feast.
