wine review: Bernard-Massard Cuvée de l’Écusson Brut NV

Ottawa, ON

January 2022

Matt’s review: From one of the smallest countries in Europe comes this impressive traditional method sparkling wine by Bernard-Massard. Cuvée de l’Écusson Brut has been the winery’s flagship wine since 1971, produced from their vineyards in Luxembourgh, nestled between France and Germany. The nose and palate show refreshing orchard fruit, apple tarts, and impressive minerality, making this sparkling wine a great choice both as an aperitif and at the dinner table. Serve chilled. Tasted January 2022. 90 points. Matt Steeves – http://www.quercusvino.ca
