"A gleaming back cherry colour with a nose of fresh black fruit aromas such as blackberry and blackcurrant, before developing touches of cherry-flavoured sweets and wild blackberry. On the palate, this is a tart, nicely-balanced wine, revealing black fruit and red fruit notes. The tannins are subtle and silky, and balance well with the lingering hints of blackberry. A pure gourmet delight to serve with cold meats or spicy pizzas. Cardinal also goes wonderfully with chocolate or with red fruit desserts. Best served at 6°C, it is a unique and original way to welcome friends."

Founded back in 1864, Gratien & Meyer are one of the leading producers of Crémant wines (traditional method sparkling) in the Loire region of France. These are produced in the same way as Champagne, but sell for much less, making them a great value alternative for celebrations and special occasions. The wines are a blend of Cabernet Franc, Gamay and Cot (Malbec), which creates a floral and fruity style of fizz.
