The white Crémant-de-Bourgogne can be blanc de blancs (made from chardonnay, blended or not with Aligoté), blanc de noirs (made from pinot noir vinified as white); it can also be a blend of white grapes and pinot noir and/or gamay vinified as white. The rosé is based on pinot noir, sometimes married to gamay.
