<p>Crémantde Bourgogne Brut,Cave de Lugny, Burgundy, France, Non VintageGrapes: 45% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, 20% GamayA rich and slightly creamy sparkling wine made by the highly acclaimed co-operative Cave de Lugny, it shows notes of citrus and apple with a fresh and crisp finish.Critics’ Tasting Notes:”Crémant, France’s other sparkling wines, are gaining in popularity and it is not hard to see why with an example like this all-Chardonnay, traditional method wine from Burgundy. The nose has delicate apple pie notes of pastry and creamy ripe pear and apple, a touch of citrus but real richness. The mousse is soft and rolling, adding to the expansive and easy-drinking quality of the sweet, ripe fruit, but the acidity is there giving this elegance and really good balance into a long, poised finish. For the price of entry-level own-brand supermarket Champagnes this delivers most impressively on quality.”90/100 points, Tom Cannavan,January 2017″Brilliant silver with green reflections. Inviting nose of greengage, pear, elderflower and a hint of brioche. On the palate, a grippy perlage, well-balanced sweet-acid play with hints of young meadow herbs. Slightly salty and juicy in the finish.”89/100 points, FALSTAFF (Austria), September 2022This delicious sparkling wine is made from vines with an average age of 30 – 35, grown on south east facing slopes and in shallow limestone soils managed by sustainable practices. Vinification features hand harvesting in punched trays, pneumatic pressing, malolactic fermentation at 100% and extraction at a low pressure – so as to preserve the aromatic complexity of the wine and characteristics of its terroir. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle, and the wine is matured for 12 months to achieve an optimum finesse.Food Match: A fantastic alternative to Champagne and a great match with tapas, fish, seafood or chicken dishes.Cremant de Bourgogne Brut, Cave de Lugny, Burgundy, France, Non Vintage</p>
