Terres Secretes Blanc de Blancs Cremant de Bourgogne

Terres Secretes Cremant de Bourgogne is wonderfully crisp, with notes of white flowers, lemon zest, pear and hints of peach. It’s wonderfully effervescent and the bubbles dance on your tongue, making your mouth water.
 
The name of this wine may be a bit long-winded, so let me break it down:
 
Terres Secretes = Name of the winery
 
Cremant = The name for traditional method sparkling wines, made in France but not in Champagne
 
de Bourgogne = The region. In this case, it's from Bourgogne/Burgundy
 
Simple, no?
 
Cremant is a wonderful alternative to Champagne, if you don't want to spend a fortune but still have the qualities of a Champagne-style wine. The difference is that Champagnes tend to be aged for a minimum of fifteen months, with 12 on lees. Normally Cremant is aged on average for nine months on lees.
 
With all this in mind, Cremant tends to be slightly more fruit-forward than Champagne, and is backed up by secondary notes of biscuit, bread and other savoury notes. Terres Secretes Cremant de Bourgogne is wonderfully crisp, with notes of white flowers, lemon zest, pear and hints of peach. It's wonderfully effervescent and the bubbles dance on your tongue, making your mouth water.
