Crémant – regional French sparkling wine made by the Champagne method – is becoming increasingly fashionable, and the pink shade of this makes it even more 'of the moment'. It's a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir – so far, so Champagne – but with 20% Chenin Blanc added. It works well, tangy and juicy with raspberry perfume and a generosity of red berry flavours in the glass. The winery is undergoing organic conversion. Mix-six price: £14.99
