Chartron & Trebuchet Cremant Bourg Brut

Winery & Winemaking Overview
Chartron & Trébuchet is a Burgundy négociant house with a focus on sourcing and producing wines that reflect regional character. While best known for still wines, the house also produces Crémant de Bourgogne using classic Burgundian grape varieties and traditional sparkling methods.

Crémant de Bourgogne is made using the méthode traditionnelle, with secondary fermentation in bottle and subsequent lees ageing to develop texture and complexity. The blend typically includes Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, sometimes supported by Aligoté or Gamay, depending on the cuvée.

The Brut designation indicates a dry style, with minimal residual sugar, allowing the wine’s acidity and structure to remain prominent. The result is a sparkling wine that balances freshness with subtle autolytic notes.
