Crémant sparkling wine

Crémant is a style of French sparkling wine made from a blend of different wine grapes. It is made in the same way as Champagne, meaning it can taste similar to France’s most famous sparkling wine, depending on factors such as winemaking style and terroir.

The difference lies in where it’s made. Crémant is produced all over France. But only the sparkling wines made in the Champagne area can be called Champagne.

The good news is that Crémant is often a fraction of the price of Champagne, and just as good quality.

Crémant is loved for its delicate bubbles, creamy texture, and fruity peach and green apple flavours with honey notes. Some of the most popular styles of Crémant include Crémant de Loire, Crémant d’Alsace and Crémant de Luxembourg. These white sparkling wines are renowned for their consistently high quality, zesty characteristics and complex flavours. Delicious rosé styles of Crémant wines are also available.

Crémant is made all over France and elsewhere, with winemakers in areas such as Alsace, Burgundy, the Loire Valley and Limoux renowned for their Crémant wines.

• Crémant de Loire – This Crémant comes from the Loire Valley in France, and is known for being fresh and zesty. It usually has delicate flavours of citrus fruits, orchard fruits, chamomile and honey. 
• Crémant d’Alsace – Alsace is home to over half of France’s Crémant production. Winemakers there create both white and rosé Crémant wines ranging from dry to off-dry. Crémant d’Alsace wines are floral and elegant, often with a flinty hint.
• Crémant de Limoux – This type of Crémant comes from the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region in southern France, and is one of the most sought-after Crémants. This elegant wine is known for its fine bubbles and citrus, white blossom and toast notes. 
• Crémant de Bordeaux – Food-friendly and affordable, white Crémant de Bordeaux is known for its fresh aromatic complexity, with delicate bubbles and notes of juicy orchard fruit, white blossom and biscuit. 
• Crémant de Bourgogne – These sparkling wines can range from crisp and fresh to rounded and rich. Less complex than other Crémant wines, they are still deliciously floral and citrusy.
