WINE MAKING PROCESS
Louis Bouillot Crémant de Bourgogne Millésimé Brut 2018 is produced using the traditional method (Méthode Traditionnelle), which involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle. This process is key to developing the wine's effervescence and complexity. The grapes are sourced from various vineyards across Burgundy. After fermentation, the wines undergo aging for several months in the cellar, allowing for the development of nuanced aromas and textures. The winery aims to capture the essence of Burgundy's terroirs and grape varieties in its sparkling wines.
