Lingot Martin Vin Rosé Pétillant 0.375L is a lightly sparkling rosé from Bugey, made for those seeking a fresh fizz without opening a whole bottle. The half-bottle is ideal for 1 or 2 glasses and maintains the same playful style as the regular bottle: red fruit, a soft mousse, and only 8% alcohol. Its compact size makes it an excellent choice for an aperitif, a small festive moment, or a dessert with red fruits.
Bugey is located in Eastern France, between Burgundy, the Jura, and the foothills of the Alps.
Location / Origin: Lingot Martin operates in Bugey, about 30 kilometers east of Bourg-en-Bresse, on the axis between Lyon and Geneva.
Soil: The vineyards are situated on clay and limestone, a combination that helps preserve fruitiness and fresh tension in the wine.
Climate & Influences: The slopes of Bugey benefit from an alpine influence, with warm days and cooler nights that support aromatic freshness.
Exposure: The steep slopes have a favorable sun exposure, allowing Gamay to build up sufficient ripeness without losing its lively fruit character.
The style focuses on lightness, fruit, and a gentle sparkle.
Fermentation: The wine is made as a rosé pétillant, with a fine mousse and low alcohol content. What is rosé pétillant? It is a lightly sparkling rosé with softer bubbles than many classic sparkling wines.
Skin Contact: The light pink color is created by short maceration of the Gamay skins. This gives the wine its rosé color and fruity aromas without a heavy tannin structure.
Alcohol Percentage: At 8% alcohol, this rosé pétillant remains light, smooth, and remarkably drinkable.
This lightly sparkling rosé is made from Gamay.
Gamay – Bugey: Gamay gives this wine its fresh aromas of strawberry, raspberry, and other red fruits. The grape is well-suited to this style because it brings juiciness, lively acidity, and a playful fruit expression.
