What are Crémants?

The traditional method


Our crémants are made using the traditional method. The specifications also set the grape varieties: for white — Auxerrois, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir vinified as a white wine, Riesling; for rosé — Pinot Noir only; as well as the yields (base 80 hL/ha, ceiling 96 hL/ha) and minimum ripeness (≥ 144 g/L of sugar, approx. 9% natural alcohol).

01

Hand harvesting

Manual harvest, whole-bunch pressing (for the whites), the cleanest possible base wine.

02

Second fermentation

Then bottling: second fermentation in the bottle from 1 December following the harvest.

03

Ageing on the lees

Ageing on the lees for at least 9 months, release at least 12 months after bottling — up to 36 months for our Vintage.

04

Riddling and disgorging

Riddling, disgorging and dosage (Brut, Extra-Brut…).

Serving tips

Serving a Crémant well

The result: fine, straight bubbles, from the floral, precise Brut to the tauter, brioche-like Vintage Extra-Brut, with an indulgent 100% Pinot Noir Rosé full of red fruit.

Serve chilled (5–7 °C), ideally in a tulip glass to preserve the aromas and the finesse of the mousse.
