Perle d'Or Millésime Cremant de Bourgogne Brut Champagne Blend 2018

Louis Bouillot – Crémant de Bourgogne Brut Millésimé 2018
AOC Crémant de Bourgogne – Nuits-Saint-Georges, Burgundy, France 🇫🇷

Overview
From limestone- and chalk-rich soils in Burgundy’s Nuits-Saint-Georges, crafted in the méthode champenoise. 60% Chardonnay forms the base of this vintage blend and 40% Pinot Noir, offering a sparkling wine that mirrors Champagne’s finesse while carrying a Burgundian soul.

Aromas & Flavors
Fresh orchard fruit (apple, pear), lemon zest, brioche, and subtle minerality. Hints of almond and chalk elevate its elegance.

Mouthfeel
Crisp yet rounded, with fine persistent bubbles. A structured, creamy texture balanced by bright acidity.

Food Pairings
Excellent with oysters, scallops, or sushi. Also pairs beautifully with creamy cheeses like Brie or Comté.

Verdict
A superb Crémant, layered, refined, and capable of standing tall beside many Champagnes. A hidden gem for those seeking value without compromise in elegance.

Did You Know?
Crémant de Bourgogne is produced under strict regulations similar to Champagne, including secondary fermentation in bottle and extended lees aging, yet often costs a fraction of the price.

🍷 Personal Pick Highlight
Among the most structured and Champagne-like Crémants I’ve tried. Simply amazing. Cheers!

La Grande Rue Grand Cru Monopole Pinot Noir 2015

The 2nd vintage of La Grande Rue we had at the Burgundy dinner in Sydney 6 weeks ago. This was the 2015. A very Vosne Romanee nose - perfumed and enticing. Sweeter fruit than the 2012. Given its prime location as being over the road (La Grande Rue) from La Romanee and La Romanee Conti it doesn’t reflect the quality of those 2 vineyards nor the price thankfully. Amazing that the separation of the width of a narrow road makes such a difference. The 1.65 hectares of La Grande Rue dates back to the 15th century. It is simply a continuation of La Tache - lighter bodied (and lighter priced). — a month ago

1877 Perle d'Aurore Crémant de Bourgogne Brut Pinot Noir Rosé

This is an excellent Cremant. An explosion of red berries on the tongue, lots of bubbles. Very much like champagne, finishes dry and clean. Great price for such an outstanding sparkling wine — 4 months ago

I was surprised. I asked for whatever Franciacorta they had, she said they only had Trentino opened, they offered this, and I was not disappointed. It was excellent.

@Raun Kupiec if you ever get a chance to try the Giulio Ferrari Riserva del Fontadore (vintage), do it. It’s sensational.

Grande Réserve Perle de Vigne Crémant de Bourgogne Brut Chardonnay Blend

Color is a little darker than I expected!

Smells like red apple and seaweed…and cured turkey.

Tastes very apple-y, but more of a sweet apple than a tart apple. Some cherry. A little toast and a slight champagne-y quality. Enjoyable. Good deal for the pricier liquor stores in the area I am visiting. 89.
