Winemaker Notes
Chandon Garden Spritz was inspired by the well-known Argentine penchant for moreish bitter flavors such as yerba mate and Fernet –aromas that tantalize the palate. Add in the exceptional quality of the local Valencia oranges, and you have the perfect authentic summer serve. It is the perfect balance between sweetness and bitterness.
Garden Spritz pairs beautifully with spicy Asian food, sushi and sashimi, old cheddar, dried exotic fruits and nuts.

Tasting Panel
Toasted brioche can be discerned beneath the herbal aromas of this quaff, a blend of Chandon sparkling wine and bitter liqueur made from Argentine-grown Valencia oranges. Tiny bubbles tickle the tongue while notes of blood orange and pomegranate flood the palate, generating just enough acidity to create a mouthwatering effect that’ll have you taking a second sip before setting down your glass.

Vinous
The NV Garden Spritz is orange bitters mixed with sparkling wine, invented in Argentina and now marketed all over the world. It combines an infusion of bitter orange and herbs with wine-based bubbly, and the result is quite attractive as an aperitif. Coppery garnet pink, with a nose of orange zest, cinnamon and star anise and touches of pastry. Sweet in the mouth, in line with the underlying concept, and the bubbles are fine to the touch.
