This top producer has been making sparkling wines in the “methode traditionelle” in Burgundy since 1920, at its winery in Charnay-Les-Macon. It was one of the very first houses in the Mâconnais to produce Cremant de Bourgogne, thanks to its years of experience and in-depth understanding of the vinification of the Chardonnay grapes grown on the estate. Today, the company is part of the Boisset “Famille des Grands Vins” group and its sparkling wines are now made at the winery in Nuits St. Georges.
