Tasting notes

Deep violet colour. Aromas of freshly crushed blackcurrant and violets. Well balanced, light, airy and delicious, from a slow 8-10 week maceration in oak vats, with no preservatives or artificial colourings.

About this wine

Crème de Cassis de Dijon is the blackcurrant liqueur behind the famous Kir cocktail. In 1951 the mayor of Dijon, Félix Kir, facing post-war economic decline, supported blackcurrant growing around the city, and the white wine and cassis aperitif that bears his name became a classic.

Albert Bichot's version is made by a very slow maceration of blackcurrants in large oak vats for 8 to 10 weeks; the juice is then blended with beet sugar and beet spirit, with no antioxidants, preservatives or artificial colourings. Deep violet, with aromas of freshly crushed blackcurrant and violets; balanced, light and delicious. 20% ABV, 700 ml.

Mix with white wine for a Kir or with Champagne for a Kir Royal, or pair with desserts. Keep refrigerated once opened.
