Parigot & Richard Crémant de Bourgogne Blanc de Blancs

Cremant de Bourgogne

Cremant de Bourgogne

I had an opportunity to sample this creamy, voluptuous Crémant while at a wine tasting where over 100 wines were served.  I can easily say that it was the nicest example of a non-Champagne bubbly there was, and at around $23, a bargain.

The mostly Chardonnay blend, highlighted with Aligoté, is pure elegance.  With its light honey color, its fruity notes and pleasant freshly-baked bread flavor, this bubbly will please both casual and sophisticated palates.

    Cheers!

  2. Big mouthful of tiny bubbles. Really quite good.
