Reserve La Burgondie Crémant De Bourgogne Brut Sparkling Blend

For the price ($10 @ trader joes), nice stuff. Apple, citrus, and a hint of yeast.

I really really enjoyed this not too dry with pretty medium sized bubbles. Has it with fancy grilled cheese and then on it own Sunday while winding down for bed.

A pleasant surprise found at Trader Joe's, this Cremant presents flavors & aromas of white peach, lemon, and apple with delicatre notes of brioche and creme fraiche on the finish. Excellent QPR, easily outperforms most sparkling wines at this price point, and was a delightful pairing with a charcuterie board! [8/25/23] ($11)

Apples & underripe pears. Honeydew? Not bad for a few bucks.

Nose: a whiff of hairspray and shampoo, uh-oh. And Apple. Maybe some very mild chalk. That’s about it. Taste: apple juice. That’s about it. The bubbles are bigger than I like. Some slight nuttiness and bitterness with a couple more sips. It’s fine, but you can get better bubbly for your $10.

Time for Oscar Party

Mediocre cheap champagne with notes of burnt toast on the nose. Long finish of dark honey and a lack of acidity rates this a massive disappointment.

Delicious! Especially mixed with Creme Chataigne.
