Forget your Dads and Grads, today, and do something special for yourself! You deserve it, dear Operative!

We searched high and low for today’s bubbly and we must say that we scored a brilliant, delicious French sparkling wine that is worthy of our demanding Operatives. We absolutely love this wine.

Nestled among the foothills of the Alps at the eastern edge of France, along the Swiss border, Domaine Berthet–Bondet is making its unique Cremant du Jura from Chardonnay and the local grape Savagnin (a relative of the Austrian Tremeiner).

This wine possesses more subtlety than American sparkling wines; carbonation is less aggressive, giving the wine more flavor and complexity. On the palate, the wine is velvet-smooth and really quite delicious.

If you love great sparkling wines, today’s wine will thrill and delight you.
