Simonnet-Febvre Crémant de Bourgogne Brut

Founded in 1840, and today directed by Jean-Philippe Archambaud, Maison Simonnet-Febvre is a traditional Chablis winery. The winery owns vineyards in Chablis, Chablis Premier Cru "Mont de Milieu" and Chablis Grand Cru "Les Preuses." It produces and vinifies a large range of different wines from the diverse terroirs of the Chablis region. Maison Simonnet-Febvre also produces and vinifies wines from the historic Yonne vineyards. These vineyards were destroyed by the phyllexera crisis that hit the area in the 19th century. It has been progressively replanted and has today regained its prestige. Based in Chablis and the new winery in Chitry-le-Fort, traditional winemaking methods and modern technologies are combined to fully express the characters of these very unique vineyards.

TASTING NOTES: Mature, soft wine, with good acidity and a fine, toasty character. It has good bottle age and a creamy, almond-flavored character. A delicious wine, just showing its origin by being richer than many Champagnes.
