Cremant De Bourgogne Blanc De Noirs - Laurent Cognard & Co 2020

The Crémant de Bourgogne Blanc de Noirs - Laurent Cognard & Co represents an excellent expression of the traditional method outside the Champagne region. Produced exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, these are carefully selected from the best vineyards in Burgundy managed by the Cognard family, known for their commitment to respecting traditions and using sustainable viticulture practices.

With maturation of at least 18 months on the lees in the bottle before disgorgement, this crémant presents in the glass with a pale and sparkling red color, accompanied by fine and persistent bubbles that indicate its excellent quality and careful production.

On the nose, Laurent Cognard & Co offers a complex aromatic range where notes of red fruits like strawberry and cherry stand out, enriched by nuances of brioche and yeasts that testify to its evolution through bottle fermentation. The olfactory approach is inviting and sophisticated, a sign of the quality of the grapes and the mastery in the winemaking process.

On the palate, the wine reveals itself to be structured yet elegant, with a perfect balance between acidic freshness and the creaminess imparted by prolonged contact with the lees. The notes of red fruit blend with a light touch of spices and minerality, leading to a long and pleasantly lively finish.

This Crémant de Bourgogne is ideal as an aperitif but also has the ability to magnificently accompany elaborate fish dishes or white meats. It is also a refined choice for celebrating special occasions, offering an intriguing alternative to the traditional champagne.
