Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.

The wine region of Crémant de Bourgogne
Traditional-method sparkling, a direct alternative to Champagne. Fine, persistent bubbles, fresh nose of green apple, lemon, white flowers, brioche and almond, taut and elegant palate (9 months minimum on lees, often 12-24). Based on Chardonnay (freshness and finesse) and Pinot Noir (roundness and red fruits), sometimes Aligoté, Gamay and Melon. Blanc de Blancs, Blanc de Noirs and fleshy rosé versions (strawberry, raspberry).
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Côte des Bar
This is the name given to the vineyards of the Aube, which are closer to Burgundy, and some of the wines produced here bear witness to this proximity. The pinot noir dominates, the meunier is practically absent. Two crus have become references: Riceys, where a rosé without bubbles is also produced, and Montgueux near Troyes, renowned for its Chardonnay.
