Gérard Bertrand Crémant de Limoux Brut - Crémant de Limoux
Producer's Notes:
A beautiful, golden yellow color. Complex, aromatic nose revealing hints of white flower, with hints of honey, green apple, and toast. Crisp, elegant structure on the palate, where the fine texture of the bubbles complements the wine naturally.
What We Say:
An elegant sparkling wine from the historic Limoux region in southern France. Made from a blend of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Pinot Noir, reflecting both the freshness of Limoux's vineyards and the centuries-old sparkling-wine tradition of the region. Gérard Bertrand's approach to the traditional method of making sparkling wines gives special attention to the careful handling of the fruit. In the producer's Limoux sparkling-wine program, grapes are harvested and pressed gently, with fermentation and bottle aging developing both freshness and the characteristic texture and complexity of the finished wine.
The aromas give it a lovely balance between fresh fruit, floral notes, and the subtle bready complexity associated with traditional-method sparkling wines. The overall impression is refined and balanced—fresh enough for an aperitif, yet sufficiently textured to accompany food.
Grape Varieties: Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Noir
Style: White - Dry, sparkling, medium-bodied, refined, and balanced
Perfect For: Aperitif, fresh seafood, lightly seared scallops, planked or smoked salmon, creamy cheeses, and light poultry dishes
A sophisticated and approachable sparkling wine, offering white flowers, honey, green apple, and toasted-bread aromas that give way to the freshness, subtle complexity, and historic Limoux character, making it an excellent alternative to Champagne.
