    La Vieille Ferme Reserve Brut - Budget Bubbly

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: November 9, 2021 Last Updated: January 21, 2023

    The crisp, bright and tasty La Vieille Ferme Reserve Brut sparkling wine.

    La Vieille Ferme Reserve Brut - Budget Bubbly

    90% Chardonnay and 10% Ugni Blanc sparkling wine from France. The secondary fermentation that creates the bubbles happens in the bottle, like Champagne.

    Sample submitted for review. This sparkler has an SRP of $17 but can be found for as low as $10. It is imported by Vineyard Brands.

    From the bottle:

    La Vieille Ferme Réserve Brut Sparkling is designed to share your celebration in elegance and simplicity. Whether served as an aperitif with friends or at a lavish banquet, this wine will help you enjoy the memorable moment and bringing conviviality.

    Made from Chardonnay vines, planted on limestone soils which provides the minerality and freshness that define the reputation of Classic French wines.

    12% Alcohol

    The non-vintage La Vieille Ferme Reserve Brut sparkling wine begins with a pleasing, classic aroma of apple, pear, a little tropical fruit and lemon plus a touch of fresh baked bread.

    Taking a sip reveals this to be crisp, bright and tasty stuff. With plenty of fine bubbles, plenty of acidity and good depth on the fruit this is quite nice. The flavors lean more towards zesty lemon in the mouth.

    It ends crisp, dry and quite long. Very good!
