Charles de Marques Champagne is a classic blend of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. It's a Brut (dry) sparkler, straw-colored, with toasty aromas of ripe fruit and freshly baked brioche. Its supple, round flavors ensure a lively mouth feel, and make it an excellent choice for all your holiday celebrations. We can't think of a better wine to drink when celebrating National Pastry Day (December 9th), National Fruitcake Day (December 27th) or even that old standby, New Year's Eve.

Our price for this stellar sparkler is very down to earth. We're selling each 750 ml bottle for $19.99*, an astronomical value you'll find only at your neighborhood Trader Joe's.

*Charles de Marques Champagne is currently available in Trader Joe's stores where wine is sold. It is $19.99 unless otherwise noted here: NH: $21.99; OH: $29.99. Alcohol availability & price may vary due to state laws, taxes, shipment fees & other such stuff. (If we could, we would.)
