Crémant de Bourgogne Brut Réserve
Situation
Bourgogne
Level
AOC Régionale
Grape variety
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir
Our Crémant de Bourgogne Brut Réserve is crafted from grapes grown in northern and southern Burgundy (the Châtillonnais, Côte Chalonnaise and Mâconnais). The variety of the grape varieties used and where they are sourced from results in balance between Chardonnay's tautness, white flower aromas and minerality and Pinot Noir's fruit, density and vinosity).
This cuvée derives its originality from expertise that combines the vinous quality of the base wines with the tautness of moderate/restrained dosage that is unusual for a Brut.
Tasting
Fine, even bubbles. The nose, redolent of citrus fruit (lime, pink grapefruit) and white flowers, precedes a well-defined palate that is fresh, vivacious and full bodied, boasting precision and lovely length.
Food/wine pairing
Taste this crémant as an aperitif, or with finely prepared fish and seafood.
Serving and keeping
