Bernard Richel, Crémant de Savoie Brut
Bernard Richel, Crémant de Savoie Brut
Price: 10,83€
DESCRIPTION
Located in Saint-Baldoph, the Richel Family cultivates its vines on the mountainous terroirs near Apremont. This Crémant de Savoie is the sparkling expression of the family's know-how, honoring Jacquère, the region's emblematic grape variety, which lends itself wonderfully to secondary fermentation thanks to its natural freshness.
Crafted according to the traditional method (second fermentation in the bottle), this Crémant benefits from aging on laths, which refines its bubbles and develops its aromatic complexity. The estate prioritizes finesse and elegance, seeking to produce a light and ethereal sparkling wine rather than a vinous one.
Upon tasting, it is a Crémant full of freshness and finesse. Its light and mineral palate leaves the fruit prominently present, with delicate notes of fresh hazelnut and white flowers. It brings a beautiful balance to the whole, perfect for the aperitif or to accompany grilled fish.
REGION
Savoie
France
La Savoie est une région viticole française montagneuse situé vers la frontière suisse. La région est très fragmenté par son relief montagneux. Le climat frais de la Savoie dicte la prédominance de vins blancs vifs produits dans la région. Malgré la difficulté des rouges à mûrir dans ce type de climat, la Savoie est la maison de la Mondeuse, un cépage rouge utilisé pour faire des vins avec une importante amertume.
Recommandé pour vous:
A great alternative to Champagne. It's very fine, light, and it goes down easily at the aperitif.
