What exactly is Crémant?
Crémant is the French sparkling wine recommendation for anyone who appreciates craftsmanship, provenance, and enjoyment. It is produced using traditional methods, with a second fermentation in the bottle and a long maturation period. And you can taste it: finely sparkling, elegant, and often surprisingly versatile.Origin, regions, and grape varieties
Crémant is so versatile because it is produced in different French regions: Burgundy, Bordeaux, Limoux, and Jura. Each region brings its own style, ranging from mineral to creamy to powerful. Variety also sets the tone when it comes to grape varieties—depending on the region, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Noir, or Mauzac are used, for example.How is Crémant made?
As with champagne, the second fermentation of crémant takes place directly in the bottle. This makes it higher quality than many other sparkling wines and ensures a fine perlage and a harmonious mouthfeel. After shaking and disgorging (removing the yeast from the neck of the bottle), the wine matures on the yeast for several months before going on sale.Difference between crémant and champagne
Champagne and crémant are produced in a similar way, but champagne may only be produced in the Champagne region, while crémant comes from other French regions. There is also a difference in price: crémant often offers impressive quality at attractive prices.Why Crémant from Schaumweinkontor?

Almost! Crémant is extremely versatile. It goes well with fish, white meat, vegetarian dishes, mild cheese, or as an aperitif. With a little maturity or dosage, it even harmonizes with spicy dishes.
What is Crémant?
Crémant is a French sparkling wine produced outside the Champagne region. It is made using the same method as champagne, but is usually more affordable and just as enjoyable.
