Bringing together hundreds of winegrowers, the cooperative has developed a strong reputation for producing high-quality Chardonnay and traditional-method sparkling wines that reflect the limestone-rich terroir of the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrémant de Bourgogne is produced using the same traditional method employed in Champagne, with a secondary fermentation taking place in the bottle to create its fine bubbles and complex texture. Cave de Lugny draws on its extensive vineyard holdings throughout the Mâconnais, where limestone and clay soils contribute freshness, minerality, and aromatic precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChardonnay plays an important role in the cooperative's sparkling wine production, contributing citrus character, elegance, and structure. Extended contact with the lees during bottle maturation develops additional complexity, introducing subtle brioche, toasted almond, and pastry notes while preserving the wine's vibrant fruit character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 vintage benefited from warm growing conditions in Burgundy, producing wines with generous fruit concentration balanced by freshness. Cave de Lugny has established itself as a respected producer of Crémant de Bourgogne, offering an appealing alternative to Champagne through traditional winemaking techniques and the distinctive character of Burgundian vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cave de Lugny","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48531906756779,"sku":null,"price":36.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/7160\/6699\/files\/cremant-bottle_18e73e93f2.jpg?v=1793922045","url":"https:\/\/whistlerwine.ca\/products\/cave-de-lugny-cremant-de-bourgogne-2022-750ml","provider":"WhistlerWine.ca ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
