Silver Cap is a blend of primarily Ugni Blanc & Chenin Blanc. Ugni Blanc adds citrus notes and brings a lovely acidity to our Blanc de Blancs. Chenin Blanc is fragrant with aromas of Granny Smith apples, honey, small white flowers, toasted brioche and hazelnuts. It has a beautiful acidity that makes for a balanced wine with great aging capacity. Silver Cap is tank fermented over a period of four months, giving it extremely fine bubbles while preserving its light, fruity side. Silver Cap is a blend of Ugni Blanc, Colombard and Chardonnay. Ugni Blanc adds citrus notes, enhancing the brut qualities of the wine. Colombard is a traditional French variety which has excellent acidity and beautiful floral aromas. Chardonnay, used widely in Burgundy and Champagne, contributes finesse and a smooth, rounded finish to the blend.

Tasting notes

Francoise Chauvenets Silver Cap, the most feminine of the sparkling category is delicate, charming, elegant, refined and fruity. With UGNI BLANC, COLOMBARD and CHARDONNAY. You will notice malt, honey nut and bread dough notes, yet slightly lighter and finer in weight and texture than Champagne. Modest finish. Drink now. One of the greatest values from Burgundy, France.
