Artemovsk KrimSekt Semi Dry - Ukraine

A semi-dry Ukrainian fizz from Artemovsk

KrimSekt is a range of sparkling wines from Ukrainian producer, Artemovsk, which itself dates back to the late 19th century.

This KrimSekt 2010 semi dry is a single-vintage, traditional-method blend of Pinot, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Aligote.

Citrussy elderflower and acacia with late-harvest orchard fruits; clean, elegant and fresh with a medium, off-dry finish.

Thoroughly enjoyable; drink as an aperitif or match with chicken liver pate.

Not yet available in the UK; purchased in Ukraine for around €4.
