Krone Borealis.

I am an avid lover of a good bottle of bubbly. The Krone Borealis is a MCC created using grape varieties of Pinot Noir & Chardonnay.

I love how the name came to being. As quoted on the Krone website: "Legend records that Bacchus, God of Wine in Greek Mythology, fell in love with Ariadne, daughter of the King of Crete. In order to uplift her spirits & to prove his love to her, he threw his golden crown, a circlet of gems, into the 'heavens' where it remained to shine forever as the dainty constellation of starts called CORONA BOREALIS.  Corona means Crown, as does Krone. Following the thought pattern yet? Hence the name Krone Borealis. Thus this MCC is often described as being full of stars and as the grapes are harvested at night under the starry night sky.

So you can be sure that I will be having a bottle or 2 over the next few days whilst relaxing on holiday.
