Abrau Durso Brut White hails from the prestigious Abrau-Durso winery, established in 1870 by decree of Emperor Alexander II on the picturesque shores of Lake Abrau in Russia's Krasnodar region. With over 150 years of winemaking heritage, Abrau-Durso is renowned for producing world-class sparkling wines, often incorporating classic French methods like Charmat and traditional bottle fermentation.
This particular Brut White is crafted from a harmonious blend of classic grape varieties, often including Chardonnay, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc. On the nose, it presents a delicate and inviting aroma rich in hints of white flowers, green apple, and bright citrus. The palate is fresh, invigorating, and wonderfully harmonious, with a vibrant acidity that is perfectly balanced by subtle fruity notes. Expect a lively effervescence with a beautiful play of small, stable bubbles, leading to a clean, crisp, and pleasantly aromatic finish. The 11.5% ABV is perfectly integrated, ensuring a refreshing yet elegant sparkling experience.
The standard 750ml bottle is ideal for celebrating milestones, toasting special moments, or simply enjoying as a refined everyday indulgence. Abrau Durso Brut White is exceptionally versatile, pairing beautifully as an aperitif, or with light dishes such as oysters, shellfish, lean fish, fresh salads, and a variety of appetizers. Serve well chilled at 6-8°C to fully appreciate its lively character and refreshing qualities.
