A bold expression of Crémant de Bourgogne, enhanced by partial ageing in oak barrels.
Cuvée Gérard brings together Chardonnay, Aligoté and Pinot Noir in a distinctive blend. Part of the Pinot Noir is vinified in oak barrels before being blended with the other wines. The resulting cuvée is then aged in bottle for 24 to 36 months, developing greater depth and structure alongside subtle toasted and oaky notes.
A rich and structured Crémant, crafted with gastronomy in mind and perfectly suited to food pairings.
Exclusive sale by case of 6 bottles
The Crémant de Bourgogne ‘Cuvée Spéciale Gérard’ is a blend of carefully selected Chardonnay, Aligoté and Pinot Noir grapes from the Côte Chalonnaise and the Côte de Beaune:
South-east facing.
Clay-limestone soil.
Dress
Deep golden in colour, with a delicate effervescence of fine, slender bubbles.
Nose
Intense and distinctive, revealing subtle oak notes alongside delicate orange blossom and a hint of stewed fruit. A characterful nose that sets the tone for this cuvée.
Palate
Clean, lively and remarkably fresh on the attack, gradually developing a fuller, more vinous character. Notes of candied fruit bring warmth and texture, while the long finish highlights the power and depth of Cuvée Gérard.
Partially fermented in oak barrels before blending, this Crémant de Bourgogne develops its aromas and acquires its distinctive character through bottle ageing lasting between 24 and 36 months.
