The Wine

40% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay, 20% Gamay, 5% Aligoté. Burgundy producers are finally taking the Crémant appellation seriously, and this is a fine example of a complex sparkling wine akin to champagne though a little fruitier and richer. 80% of the wine comes from two consecutive vintages, so there’s great freshness with aromas of green apples and lemons alongside more mature toast and cinnamon notes. A nice dry texture rounds off the wine perfectly.

92 Gerhild Burkard, Falstaff 'A bright golden yellow colour with a copper sheen. Yeasty bread, lime blossom, white peach with a touch of dried herbs. A silky mousse, a flattering and creamy texture with an animated acidity, good length. Elegant, harmonious.'

About the Wine Maker

Domaine Agnes Paquet is recognized locally as a leading innovator of the current generation. The estate boasts vineyards in Cotes de Beaune and Hautes Cotes de Beaune across appellations such as Bourgogne Aligoté, Bourgogne Chardonnay, Bourgogne Pinot Noir, Hautes Cotes de Beaune white and red, Auxey-Duresses (currently 5 ha or 40% of the domain), Pommard, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Saint Aubin. Agnes Paquet is keenly aware of terroir nuances and maintains a traditional approach in her vineyards. Since 2004, chemical herbicides have been eliminated, with treatments now using copper and sulphur.

While not certified organic or biodynamic, she follows these practices closely. Vineyard labor is essential, especially when the vines are most active from May to July, during which the workforce expands to 12.The harvest is also done by hand, with sorting done both in the field and at the winery. Fermentations are initiated solely by natural yeasts, with minimal SO2 usage, and chaptalization is seldom necessary. White wines undergo both fermentations in barrels and mature for 11-18 months, depending on the year. Red wine fermentation occurs in concrete tanks over 15-20 days, partially using whole bunches. The wines are then aged in barrels (15-30% new) for 10-12 months, varying with the vintage.
