Tasting profile
Structure: light-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, dry
Crémant de Bourgogne — traditional-method sparkling from Burgundy, made the same way as Champagne but from Burgundian fruit and at a fraction of the price. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay give the frame, Gamay a little red-fruited flesh. Citrus and green apple with white blossom, a fine brisk mousse and just enough autolytic brioche to add depth without weight. Dry, light and lively. Best in its first few years after you buy it, while the bready note still sits inside the acidity.
