About the Wine

Cremant de Bourgogne is the perfect alternative for sparkling wine lovers who are looking for high-quality bubbly at a reasonable price. Produced by the traditional Champenoise method, Cremant offers a fantastic value alternative to Champagne.

Decanter says that “Champagne region no longer has a monopoly on high-quality fizz. Look beyond France’s premier sparkling region, and you’ll be rewarded – there is a surprising wealth of complex and keenly priced options to discover, in the Crémant sparkling wine category.”

Domaine Emile Cheysson is nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Chiroubles, just a stone's throw away from the Oriental-style Church, with a backdrop of the majestic Alps. Here, the exceptional terroirs of this vineyard elevate the Chiroubles wines to unparalleled heights.

In 1868, the visionary industrialist, statesman, and sociologist, Émile Cheysson, acquired the estate. Previously owned by the monks of the Cluny Abbey, who cultivated the hills of Chiroubles and established a priory on the current site, the estate underwent a transformation into a family venture. Over 150 years, through successive generations, the Cheysson family has relentlessly modernized and expanded the estate, ensuring its legacy lives on.

While the 17th-century cellars stand as a testament to the estate's age-old roots, today, it boasts 26 hectares of vineyards, specializing in Chiroubles and Beaujolais Blanc appellations. This ideal location, perched 400 meters above sea level, offers a picturesque panorama of the Beaujolais vineyards and the Alps, making Chiroubles a destination not just for wine, but for its scenic beauty and gastronomy.

At Domaine Emile Cheysson, excellence permeates every stage, from grape to bottle. The wines have garnered acclaim in numerous guides and competitions, a testament to the commitment to quality. 

Tasting Notes: 100% Chardonnay. Savor the golden glow of our 'Crément Prestige', crowned with delicate bubbles that tickle the senses. This extraordinary blend delivers a rich, smooth taste with hints of white flowers and fresh fruit. Silky and dense, it showcases classic Chardonnay flavors like citrus fruit and hazelnuts, ending with a light, delicate touch.
