This Crémant de Bourgogne is produced according to the traditional method, with slow pneumatic pressing, malolactic fermentation in stainless steel and 12–15 months sur lie. In the glass it appears pale gold with a gentle sparkle. The nose offers fresh notes of green apple, pear, citrus and white flowers, with subtle brioche and pastry notes in the background . On the palate the wine shows a refreshing acidity, a creamy mousse and a complexity reminiscent of nuts (almond, hazelnut), with a fine mineral finish
Elegant as an aperitif. Pair with oysters, prawns, lobster, light fish dishes or soft cheeses. The saline finish goes perfectly with seafood.
