Domaine Chermette Cremant De Bourgogne Brut NV

The Domaine Chermette Crémant de Bourgogne Brut NV is an elegant 100% Chardonnay sparkling wine made using the traditional method. The Chardonnay comes from approximately 35-year-old vines planted on clay-limestone soils in southern Beaujolais. A blend of three vintages brings balance and complexity, with aromas of white flowers, peach and pear leading into fresh citrus notes.

On the palate, it is crisp and refined, with fine, persistent bubbles, bright citrus fruit and a fresh mineral character. The base wine is slowly fermented in stainless steel before secondary fermentation in bottle, with extended ageing on lees adding texture and subtle complexity. A low dosage keeps the finish lively and dry.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic alternative to Champagne for those who enjoy fresh, Chardonnay-based sparkling wine with fine bubbles and mineral precision. Delicious now, although the domaine suggests it can cellar for up to 10 years. Serve well chilled with oysters, scallops, grilled prawns, smoked salmon, canapés or roast chicken.
