Westport Rivers Brut RJR

Popped this open for a casual dinner and the fine, persistent bubbles lifted the whole meal. The crisp finish is exactly what I want from a brut, and the 750ml bottle was more than enough for two glasses each. Perfect for a warmer evening.

I was surprised how well this brut held its own against some pricier Champagnes—the bubbles stayed lively long after pouring and the crisp finish made it perfect with oysters.

Opened this for a friend’s birthday and the crisp finish paired perfectly with the oysters. The 750 ml bottle was just the right size for toasting. A nice surprise from Massachusetts.
