The best kept secret

If I where you, I would consider stop reading right now and head to Vinmonopolets app and order this bottle. Last time we checked the production of this beauty was limited to 7-800 bottles, and the price is only 249kr. They will run out soon! This is the best kept secret at Vinmonopolet. This is a 15 year old Cremant priced ridiculously low :)

Ok, so this is a rare find. We've tasted it once before, when visiting this producer in Burgundy, some years back. They produce millions of excellent Cremants every year, but only a handfull of these vintage bottles. "The market is too small for vintage Cremants", they told us. So focus is good quality for the masses, and making some of these just for fun.

You could check out our Cremant story here:

The thing is, as we talk about in the film, that Burgundy produces the highest quality still wine in the world, so chances are that sparkling Burgundy should be pretty good.

As John Kaare says in the story: "In my opinion a vintage Cremant from Burgundy, is better than a vintage Champagne". And this is coming from a guy who knows his bubbles.

Tasting notes

Louis Bouillot Cremant de Bourgogne Millesime 2005 - 249kr

Made from 100% Pinot Noir.

Colour like fields of golden straws. 
Delicious smells of ripe red apples, freshly home baked bread, sweet citrus peel and some butter. Hints of rocks and dust.

Smooth and elegant in the mouth, with small bubbles. Rich flavours of ripe apples, lemons and bread. Good acidity and impressing length.

​A fantastic wine that should be enjoyed on its own.
