Tzarina Lux casket

The Tzarina Lux Casket pairs a serious champagne with a touch of fun: press the base of the transparent bottle and it lights up. It comes in a gift box, and the metal label is numbered. The cuvée de prestige is made of 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir. The nose shows fresh, floral notes, then cinnamon. On the palate the brut is lively and fresh, with a rich, structured texture shaped by ageing in wooden barrels.

The aromas are still reserved, which points to youth and cellaring potential. As a gift, this edition makes a particularly strong impression. At the table it goes with roast poultry or mature hard cheese. Serve it at 10 to 12 °C in a large white wine glass.
