It is not a Champagne. But it's really close. Because in this case we are talking about a bottle that belongs to the Crémant de Bourgogne appellation. Established in 1975, this appellation covers a vast territory encompassing all of Burgundy, from Chablis, to Beaujolais, via Côtes de Nuits and Côtes de Beaune. Mythical territories where the grapes ripen in ideal conditions, rooted in soils unique in complexity, and where the mastery of the producers allow them to develop bubbles of extreme finesse, rich and elegant. Maison du Cremant, in particular, offers this cuvée of 50 percent Chardonnay, with 30 percent Pinot Noir, Gamay and Aligoté. The grapes are pressed as soon as they arrive at the winery, and alcoholic fermentation is carried out in thermoregulated stainless steel vats. Then, after blending, the second fermentation takes place in the bottle from 18 to 36 months. The result is a sparkling wine characterized by a beautiful light gold color, made brighter by dense chains of fine bubbles. Aromas of white flowers, orange blossom and brioche are appreciated on the nose. In the mouth, the acidity is ideal and ensures perfect wine balance. To uncork, well chilled, to accompany a risotto or grilled fish.
The presence of the Moingeon family in Burgundy is mentioned as far back as the 15th century. And who knows if Jean Moingeon, born in 1415 and a plowman by profession, could have ever imagined that among his 1,500 descendants, two brothers would give birth in the 19th century to one of the most prestigious houses in Burgundy, La Maison du Crémant. The story is interesting. It all stemmed, in fact, from two atypical marriages, as brothers François and Albert Moingeon, winegrowers in Pommard, married two sisters, Louise and Berthe, respectively. In 1895 they settled in Nuits-Saint-Georges and together started their own business. The two brothers remained in charge of La Maison du Crémant until 1922, when Pierre Moingeon, Albert's only son, arrived at the company and was joined by Pierre Barbier, François' son-in-law. The latter, in particular, through his training as an engineer, has registered numerous patents that have contributed to the evolution of the classical method. Starting with a particular automatic console that is the ancestor of the modern gyropallet.
