Description
What kind of wine is it
Agnes et Didier Dauvissat Crémant de Bourgogne Blanc de Blancs Brut is a Traditional Method sparkling wine that encapsulates the essence of Burgundy. Made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it presents a bright straw yellow in the glass with a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it reveals clear fruity notes combined with soft yeast aromas, introducing a dry and elegant palate, perfect for accompanying delicate starters, cheeses or raw fish dishes.
Where does it come from
This Crémant de Bourgogne originates from the vineyards of Agnes et Didier Dauvissat located in Beine, near Chablis. The vines grow on clay-limestone marl soils characterised by the presence of small oyster fossils. This particular geological composition, typical of the Kimmeridgian terroir, gives the wine a vibrant gustatory tension, enhancing the freshness and pronounced mineral character of the Burgundy region.
How is it produced
The vinification faithfully follows the principles of the Traditional Method, with the aim of enhancing the expressiveness of the grapes. The wine undergoes a long period on the lees, essential for enriching the aromatic complexity and refining the texture of the bubbles. The Brut dosage ensures a dry, linear and perfectly balanced palate, delivering a finish of great cleanliness and elegance.
