This is a great alternative to Champagne – at a fraction of the price. Fresh, light and dry with ripe apple and grapefruit. Lovely foaming mouthfeel with creamy notes and a tangy finish –very complex for the price. This is Burgundy’s most reliable co-op, so fill-up your fridge!

100% Chardonnay, this is very pale but precise on the palate. Hints of lemon and flowers on the nose, crisp, creamy and elegant on the palate with some good development and biscuity characters. A very classy and very well priced example. Dry with good intensity on the finish. Unlike many Cremant de Bourgogne this has depth and roundness.

A sure thing from the Lugny co-op, made from Chardonnay that’s grown on limestone-clay soils. Dried fruit and nuts on the nose, fresh and lively with green apple flavours. Good value for money.
