Crémant de Bourgogne Blanc de Noirs | Rounded elegance

Dessus Les Vermots comes from an illustrious village appellation, and is the ultimate expression of a Burgundy climat, bringing out the very essence of the fruit from a single plot in a sparkling wine. This precious wine is magnified through a rigorous ageing process as befitting its origins. A Crémant of great distinction, ideal with traditional dishes, its complex aromatic palette, the result of the winemaker’s expertise, showcases the greatness of a single varietal – Pinot Noir – from a single terroir. 

A Crémant de Bourgogne all about harmony. A deep grayish-yellow with a golden tinge, the nose is complex, with heady aromas of honey, redcurrant and cherry, topped off with lightly toasted and buttery notes. In the mouth, the Pinot Noir comes through yet remains delicate. The attack is suave, with a velvety freshness, and a rounded, long finish allowing its pleasant balance of flavors to be fully appreciated. 

Authentic dishes: Traditional cuisine, or sweet-and-sour combinations.

The 2005 vintage was an ideal year for the vines. After a fairly mild winter, spring fluctuated between rain and warm weather, followed by drought and a north wind which resulted in healthy grapes that produced fine and very fruity juice. The grapes came from a small plot called Dessus les Vermots, located over a rocky limestone vein in the village of Savigny-lès-Beaune.

This blanc de noirs Crémant de Bourgogne is a careful blend, with 20% of the wine matured in oak barrels before ageing in bottles for eight years without dosage.
