PRECISE QUALITY MANAGEMENT
Crémant de Bourgogne was granted AOC status in 1975. Made by "méthode traditionnelle", its production is governed by strict rules that apply to all crémant appellations. The Maison Castel teams work with their network of long-term partners to choose the vineyards for this Crémant de Bourgogne, which is a blend of Chardonnay, Gamay and Pinot Noir.
MAISON CASTEL KNOW-HOW
The Maison Castel winemakers closely monitor the ripening of the grapes, which is key to the profile of this crémant. The fruit is picked by hand and taken to the winery in small, open crates. The base wine is chosen according to a number of specifications ie. adapted pressing, carefully chosen yeasts, and alcoholic fermentation carried out at controlled temperature. An 12-month ageing period allows the lees to develop aromatic richness and adds complexity to the structure.
