The wine region of Bourgogne Mousseux
Burgundian regional AOC for sparkling reds in the Champagne method — since 1985 reserved for reds alone. Blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay (and César in the Yonne), plus Aligoté, Chardonnay and Pinots. Fine bubbles, light robe, fruity and thirst-quenching profile with notes of cherry, raspberry, strawberry and a floral touch, easy-drinking palate. Production now marginal, supplanted by Crémant de Bourgogne.
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: Film maceration
A technique that consists of leaving the grapes to macerate in the open air at a low temperature before fermentation, thus enhancing the aromatic expression of the wine.
