If you're looking for a fine fizz to uncork throughout the festive season, make it our vintage Crémant de Bourgogne. Because not only does it share many similarities with its much more expensive neighbour (same grape varietals and production method as champagne) but comes in at a third the price.

The fact that you can get a vintage sparkling wine of this quality for this price is truly astonishing. We found the Sainchargny crémant over ten years ago at what is one of the best grower cooperatives in France, the Caves de Lugny of Mâcon. Upon tasting it, we couldn't believe our luck. Better than very many champagnes, we thought.

How does the wine taste? Customer Reviews (3)

Lots of fresh fruit on the nose with a hint of creamy nuttiness that lends real complexity to the palate. Extra bottle age deepens this complexity in more savoury layers that develop, making for a crémant of real sophistication that also represents remarkable value for money.

Excellent, a regular in our house where my wife has a superb palate and prefers this to almost all champagnes (previous vintage)

Michael - April 2021

Really excellent and thoroughly enjoyed by all who tasted it - a brilliant alternative to champagne. In my view preferable! (previous vintage)

Neil - January 2021

An amazing sparkling wine. Worth exploring. It's dry but drinkable (previous vintage)

Grant - December 2020

"If you don't need champagne but do need first-class bubbles, then the 2017 Cave de Lugny Crémant de Bourgogne 'Émérite' is the one. Made in the champagne method from Chardonnay/Pinot Noir, its stunning quality at a derisory price. Ive lost count of how often Ive banged on about it, served it, drunk it and begged for more."

Jonathan Ray, The Spectator Magazine

"Acacia, honeysuckle, white flowers and honeyed citrus fruit on the nose, tarte au citron and buttery pastry notes, really inviting. Well-rounded and succulent palate, juicy lemons and limes, crisp green apples and ripe pears. Good vibrancy and density with drive, refined and harmonious -incredibly moreish. An excellent time to drink this as a far superior alternative to cheap Champagne. Made by the highly-rated Cave de Lugny cooperative in southern Burgundy. Drink 2021-2026."
