N.V. Charles Duret, Crémant de Bourgogne 12/750ml
The appellation Crémant de Bourgogne Contrôlée was created by a decree on the 17th October, 1975. 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.
The 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.
This Crémant is delicious served as an apéritif or with food, in particular with dishes which have creamy wine sauces. 
It is the perfect wine for receptions.

"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."

N.V. Charles Duret, Crémant de Bourgogne Rose 12/750ml

The appellation Crémant de Bourgogne Contrôlée was created by a decree on the 17th October, 1975.

The base wine for Crémant de Bourgogne Rosé comes from pre-selected vines within the Burgundy region. 100% Pinot Noir.

Following a draconian hand sorting of the grapes they are immediately pressed. A gentle and slow pressure is used in order to extract the very delicate salmon pink color from the pulp.

Delicate, long-lasting bubbles are proof of this traditional, bottle fermented, quality sparkling rosé burgundy wine. The first impression in the bouquet is of brioche followed by aromas of blackcurrants and redcurrants. Rich and long lasting flavors follow.

7 to 8°. Served as an aperitif or with many dishes such as fish or poultry. Particularly attractive when served with fresh fruit desserts. It is the perfect wine for receptions.

Made in the traditional method of bottle fermentation over 12 months.

De-gorging, dosage de depart and the final cork is then inserted.

Can be stored for many years in a dark, cool place.
