Crémant de Bordeaux is a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) from the prestigious Bordeaux wine region in France. This appellation is renowned for its sparkling wines crafted using the traditional method, also known as the Champagne method. Crémant de Bordeaux is distinguished by its elegance and finesse, resulting from the blend of grape varieties typical to the region such as Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle in white, as well as Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon in rosé.
The diverse soils of Bordeaux, ranging from gravelly to clay-limestone, contribute a unique complexity to these wines. Crémant de Bordeaux offers a refined alternative to champagnes and charms with its aromas of white fruits, citrus, and sometimes floral notes. On the palate, it reveals a refreshing liveliness and fine bubbles that make it a perfect choice for aperitifs or to accompany delicate dishes.
For wine enthusiasts, managing stocks and discovering these sparkling gems is made easier through the use of cellar management applications and software. These tools enable the tracking of wine evolution and ensure optimal tasting with each bottle opened.
