Location

France

Region

AOC Crémant de Bourgogne

GRAPE VARIETIES

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Gamay, Aligoté

 

WINEMAKING

Four Burgundy grape varieties give a perfect balance. Chardonnay (45%) for finesse and elegance, Pinot Noir (35%) for body, Gamay (15%) adds lightness and Aligoté (5%) offers its vivaciousness. Bottled in the January after the harvest and aging on lees takes place over 12 months. This longer aging is a key factor in quality and gives a more distinctive maturity.

 

TASTING NOTES

Showing a nice light yellow color with golden hints, our Crémant de Bourgogne offers numerous fine bubbles and a soft mousse. Fine and very expressive, this wine shows yellow fruit scents combined with white fruit, toasty notes, and complexity. Well-balanced, combining pleasant freshness, fruitiness, and complexity. The finish is full.

 

PAIRING

As an aperitif. Best served at 6°C to 8°C / 42°F to 46°F.
