Its origin lies in the northern part of Burgundy, where fresh acidity and chalky soils largely define the style.
- Location / Origin: The grapes come from the Yonne region of Burgundy, with a clear focus on the area around Chablis. This cooler northern part of Burgundy provides precisely the tension that sparkling wine needs.
- Soil: The vineyards are located on clay and limestone from higher altitude plots. This combination helps maintain freshness, precision, and a crisp line in the wine.
- Vineyard: The average age of the vines is 20 years, and the yield is 65 hl/ha. This suits a style that prioritizes vibrancy and consistency.
- Regional Context: Crémant de Bourgogne received its official AOC status in the 1970s and today constitutes Burgundy's classic sparkling appellation outside of Champagne.
The cellar approach here focuses on pure fruit, fine bubbles, and a dry, harmonious style.
- Fermentation: The base wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks. This is followed by the traditional method with a second fermentation in the bottle, which creates a fine mousse and a lively, precise structure.
- Aging / Bottle Aging: The wine ages for 18 months sur lattes. This provides extra refinement, more calmness in the mousse, and a more beautiful length in the glass.
- Dosage: At 8 g/l, this brut remains pleasantly dry, while retaining enough roundness to keep the wine smooth and approachable.
This crémant is entirely built on one grape, which gives it a unique rosé profile within the house's range.
- 100% Pinot Noir – Burgundy: Pinot Noir forms the complete base here and gives the wine its beautiful rosé color, fine red fruit notes, and soft, refined structure.
