Francois Montand sports a classy look yet represents a remarkable value. It is the "house sparkler" at the Blue Fin Restaurant in Time Square. Montand is the perfect sparkling wine meant to be poured and poured. A caterer’s dream!"

Sancerre Guy Saget 2008 |
|
| |
|
|
| |

|
|
Sancerre, this color presented in a clear, bright straw yellow with greenish tinges. Presenting a fine bouquet of white flowers with delicate hints of gooseberry, grapefruit, boxwood, and a mineral very elegant touch. Fresh and lively, with juicy acidity, also on the palate can be all the fragrant aromas of the bouquet again found to be more mature later on into further notes of dried fruits. In the final, beautifully balanced and elegant with fine Minealität.
The controlled region of the AOC Sancerre is on the left bank of the Loire, opposite Pouilly Fumé, some 200 km south of Paris. The vines grow here at about 200 to 350 meters height in a clearly marked continental climate, but also the Atlantic from the influences and benefits from the proximity of the river Loire, which produces a very special microclimate. The diverse Bodenforma organizations (mainly from lime and limestone, above the city with the famous flint, further west, increasingly, with clay or gravel) mixed characterize the mineral and also very fragrant and elegant character of the wines.

Banfi Rosa Regale |
|
| |
|
|
| |
 |
|
Rosa Regale is a unique red sparkling wine. Aromatic with a hint of rose petals and raspberries, Rosa Regale is delightfully vivacious and festive.
While it is appreciated as one of the few wines in the world that truly marries well with chocolate, especially dark or bittersweet, its charms extend across a palette of occasions and food pairings, from savory to sweet. |
