Sparkling Stories: Languedoc & Loire

A French wine tasting in collaboration with the “Skhva Veli” project

Host of the tasting: wine enthusiast & sommelier — Alexandre Koliashevi

Join us for an elegant tasting of French sparkling wines from two exceptional regions — the Loire and Languedoc.

During this evening, you'll explore the unique character of each terroir, discover the secrets of traditional sparkling winemaking, and enjoy thoughtfully paired gourmet bites selected to highlight each wine’s profile.

Tasting Lineup:

Each wine will be paired with a signature dish by our chef:

• Saumur Brut — mineral freshness and precision
  Pairing: goat cheese with fresh herbs and a drop of honey on toasted baguette
  → balances the wine’s acidity, highlights its minerality, and enhances creamy notes.

• Saumur Rosé Brut — delicate berries and elegance
  Pairing: salmon tartare with raspberry and lime on a crisp or cucumber slice
  → bright, clean combination supporting the wine’s fruity profile and rosy nuance.

• Élégance Blanquette de Limoux — classic southern charm
  Pairing: mini crostini with chicken liver mousse and fig confit
  → refined and rich match that deepens the wine’s texture and adds aromatic complexity.

• Sieur d'Arques Aimery Brut
  Pairing: goat cheese and lemon zest in a crisp tartlet
  → creamy and flavorful bite that complements the wine’s freshness and floral hints.

• Sieur d’Arques Aimery Demi-Sec — semi-sweet delight from Mauzac
  Pairing: tartlet with brie and roasted pear, topped with almond flakes
  → a play on sweet-salty contrast, perfectly balanced by the wine’s soft acidity and round sweetness.
