Friends brought this lovely, well-priced, crisp Crémant de Bourgogne to our home for a wine-filled weekend and we really enjoyed it as one of the afternoon sippers with munchies.
For fans of Cava and Prosecco, Crémant de Bourgogne is a great option, at a similar price point. I enjoy the warm biscuit and lemony flavors, typical of Chardonnay, this Crémant showcased. Lovely acidity also. Nice find for under $25.
In the glass: Pale straw yellow
Aromas (nose): Ripe pear and Meyer lemon aromas with baked bread notes.
Flavors (palate): Juicy green apply with citrus and nutty notes.
Texture/finish: Creamy mouthfeel, fine mousse with a medium finish
Pairings: Seafood, fish, grilled chicken
Wine type: Sparkling wine
Grape: Chardonnay
Region: Burgundy, France
Cost: $25
Adding the Cave de Lugny Cremant de Bourgogne Blanc de Blancs to my repertoire.
Cheers, Veronique
