This French bubbly has an attractive yeasty, fresh-bread nose that reminds you of Champagne, but it’s not. From the Cremant de Limoux appellation in Southern France, this fragrant bubbly tastes of sweet bread, toasty almonds, honey and spice. Terrific as an aperitif, it’s delicious with scallops, shrimp and soft tangy cheeses. Only $12.99 at BevMo!
