Marie Stuart Cuvve de la Reine Brut Champagne

Marie Stuart Cuvve de la Reine Brut Champagne

The Cuvee de la Reine Brut is bright, noble and elegant, like its namesake, Marie Stuart. Thanks to an original and well-balanced blend, offering a wealth of fruit-driven aromas and a mineral touch on the finish, this Champagne makes a delicious aperitif.

Mary Stuart, a fascinating and mysterious historical figure, is one of the most astonishing characters from the Renaissance. An extraordinary woman, considered by her contemporaries as the greatest beauty in Europe, she is the very incarnation of woman in all her complexity and singularity.

She was Queen of Scotland and Queen of France, wife to Francis II and the rival of Queen Elizabeth I of England. The story of this monarch, her passionate and glamorous personality, her weaknesses and grandeurs, has always inspired artists, writers and poets of every age.

She was very fond of the Champagne region where she stayed with her aunt Renata of Lorraine, at the time Abbess of Saint-Pierre-les-Dames Abbey in Reims. There she won the hearts of the local population. A street in Reims was renamed in her honour (one of its buildings is currently home to the Union of Champagne Houses).
