Cave de Viré Crémant de Bourgogne (France)

Bubbly’s take: Another characterful Crémant found! This one comes out of the bottle with a pearly froth and a wonderfully pale complexion. Made by the Cave de Viré cooperative, with a cultivating area of around 240 hectares, this sparkling is one of several distinctive Crémants. This particular Crémant has a delicately fragrant and almost creamy taste that is reminiscent of citron and melon.

Would go well with: A sunny evening. We didn’t pair the Crémant de Bourgogne and we think it makes for a more unusual albeit delicate apéritif. That said, we think this Crémant would go well with a lighter starter, like a prawn cocktail or a tuna niçoise salad.
