BUBBLES, BITTERS AND BOTANICALS COME TOGETHER FOR AN APERITIF NO OTHER CHANDON GARDEN SPRITZ FINALLY MAKES ITS WAY TO MANILA

April 21, 2022

 

CHANDON Garden Spritz was officially launched in Manila at 1120 HOUSE. This perfect summer aperitif was launched by CHANDON, the makers of exceptional sparkling wines from unexpected lands across the globe, under Moët Hennessy Philippines, a member of LVMH luxury-goods group. CHANDON Garden Spritz is a ready-to-pour mix of hand-crafted liqueur with awarded Chandon sparkling wine, crafted in the high altitude vineyards in Argentina.

“CHANDON Garden Spritz adds an exciting touch to the summer celebrations and golden hour drinks, plus it takes no cocktail skills, simply chill, uncork and pour over ice.”

This sun-drenched elixir is a sophisticated summer serve in under a minute, ready to serve and share immediately upon popping the cork, ideally chilled over ice with a sliver of dried or fresh orange and a sprig of rosemary then kick back under Manila skies with your close friends for a moment you’ll never forget. CHANDON Garden Spritz is the perfect sip of summer for those seeking a masterfully crafted and refined spritz.

Mr. Patrick Madendjian – Managing Director of Moët Hennessy Southeast Asia Markets shared at the event: “CHANDON Garden Spritz is a natural extension of the pioneering spirit embedded in CHANDON’s DNA since its founding in Argentina in 1959. Carrying on the spirit of founder Robert-Jean de Vogué, onetime President of Moët & Chandon with a passion for travel, discovery and winemaking, the Maison carries on its tradition of innovation with CHANDON Garden Spritz, continues our journey of ongoing exchanges, reinventing collaboration, sharing inspiration and creativity. In 60 years of excellence, the Maison’s pioneering spirit has taken it all over the globe, making us the largest sparkling vineyard worldwide and the only domain on which the sun never sets.”

“Now, we want to inspire Filipino consumers to enjoy an elevated spritz experience. Under the tropical climate of the country, our consumers all need something refreshing and uncomplicated for those sunny summer days in their favorite bar, or a friend-gathering garden party on the weekend, and importantly they are open for tasting new things. Therefore, we believe CHANDON Garden Spritz is the answer. Today, we are excited to add this exceptional spritz bottle to our portfolio in this market and hope that the CHANDON Garden Spritz continues our vision to open a world of possibility for sparkling wine.” – said Patrick. Last Thursday, the city's sundowners were bathed in the warm light of the golden hour as they enjoyed their very own perfect serves of Manila's newest Chandon Garden Spritz and toasted to the end of the day with their friends. Sophisticated, simple, and intriguing, which has the naturally delicious balance of bubbles, bitters, and botanicals, CHANDON Garden Spritz starts with an exceptional sparkling wine, Chandon Brut from Mendoza Argentina. This is blended with only the best ingredients - hand picked grapes and sustainably farmed oranges from Valencia. The unique alcoholic beverage that redefines the spritz experience is the attempt to capture that feeling and share it with those around.

In addition to an unwavering commitment to quality, sustainability continues to be at the forefront of all CHANDON’s sparkling winemaking, including the new CHANDON Garden Spritz – which was made with no artificial flavors or colorants. The orange peels used for the liqueur are hand extracted and making use of the full fruit, the juice is distributed to local schools, while remaining waste is reused as compost in CHANDON's vineyards. The secret's out: Chandon Garden Spritz is now in Manila, exclusively available at 1120 House until June 30, 2022 - so come on over for a sundowner session. Every Thursday until June, enjoy the sunset and music at 1120, and your first taste of this summer aperitif is on the house
