Crémant de Bourgogne Brut 'Cuvée Millésimée' Cave de Lugny 2022
A cuvée of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir that's produced in the Traditional Method, just like Champagne, where the all-important fizz-creating secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle, followed by extended ageing on lees.
A lovely persistent fizz dances on the surface releasing aromas of ripe orchard fruit and citrus with subtle biscuity, almost pastry-like notes from extended lees-ageing.
The palate follows the aromas perfectly - initially there's mature orchard fruit; pear and apple, with citrus notes and a hint of savouriness leading to more exotic fruit with a toasty/biscuity edge. The fine, persistent fizz and freshening citrus zip make resisting another glass impossible.

Far more mellow than some rather acidic champagnes. Its a big hit now with our friends who were initially unconvinced until they tried it! Great value which is a bonus, as it seems to vanish at an alarming rate from our store.
Fantastic bubbly. Better than many champagnes. We've drunk the 2 slightly cheaper versions of cave de lugny for many years but this is a further step up. I'm not surprised it's sold out quickly. Please get hold of more we will be buying it!
Excellent, a regular in our house where my wife has a superb palate and prefers this to almost all champagnes (previous vintage)
Really excellent and thoroughly enjoyed by all who tasted it - a brilliant alternative to champagne. In my view preferable! (previous vintage)
An amazing sparkling wine. Worth exploring. It's dry but drinkable (previous vintage)
