The very important base wine for Crémant comes from pre-selected vines within the Burgundy region. There is a very strict hand sorting of the grapes before they are de-stemmed and pressed before vinification.  The second fermentation takes place in the bottle. Made in the traditional method of bottle fermentation over a minimum of 9 months before de-gorging, dosage de départ  and the final cork being inserted.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThe grape varietals are 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay. Delicate, long-lasting bubbles are proof of this traditional, bottle fermented, quality sparkling white burgundy wine.  Fresh, fruity flavors with a hint of hazelnuts on the finish.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThis Crémant is delicious served as an apéritif or with food, in particular with dishes which have creamy wine sauces. \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tIt is the perfect wine for receptions.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\"The non-vintage Charles Duret Crémant de Bourgogne is composed of 70 percent pinot noir and 30 percent chardonnay grapes. Made in the venerable champagne method — or méthode traditionelle — this delicate, taut and paradoxically creamy sparkling wine offers uplifting aromas of biscuits and hazelnuts and enticing meadowy scents. It’s fashioned in a light, tight, satisfyingly effervescent manner, with a sense of lovely well-knit tone and presence. Flavors of toast and lime zest lead to a slightly spicy, limestone-etched finish. Very Good+ and Great Value at about $20.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReview:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay made the traditional method and aged on the lees for 9 months, the Charles Duret Crémant de Bourgogne offers a nose of pastry and orchard fruit that are mirrored on the palate with the addition of some toasty lees. It’s full in the mouth, fresh and a touch steely in character, and finishes with good length and lingering fresh flavors.\"\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e- International Wine Review (Champagnes \u0026amp; Sparkling Wines for the Holidays: The Best of 2018), 90 pts\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Charles Duret","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948708851759,"sku":"F4EE130028CHS","price":17.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/charles_duret_cremant_brut_hq_bottle.jpg?v=1771482719","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/charles-duret-cremant-de-bourgogne-nv","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
