Simonnet-Febvre have made sparkling wines in the Chablis region since the house was founded in 1840. Crémant de Bourgogne wines are produced using the traditional method where the secondary fermentation in bottle creates the wines sparkle. Once in bottle the wines mature slowly for many months in Simonnet-Febvre's historic Chablis cellars. | |

Silver MedalSan Francisco International Wine Competition 2010 Western Daily press / Western Morning News / thisisdevon.comMy current pick of the pink fizzes... Made by a leading producer of Chablis wines, it has a delicate shell-pink colour, a busy, tiny-bubble mousse and a bright, fresh aroma in which you get more than a hint of alpine strawberry, a clear marker of wine from Pinot Noir grapes. The overall effect is of an elegant and crispy dry wine. And i dare say it, this one compares very well indeed with just about any rosé Champagne. Jacqui Morley, Blackpool Gazette, 10 August 2013Some sparkling wines are more than a match for the feel good fizz of Champagne - and often at a fraction of the price. Such is the case for Simonnet-Febvre Cremant de Bourgogne Brut Rose, pride and joy of managing director, Jean-Philippe Archambaud. It's not hard to see why. It's deceptively pale rose in colour (no red wine is added to boost the natural colour) but big in flavour. Fine bubble mousse delivered short sharp shocks of raspberry juiciness, The bouquet's all wild strawberries. It's cracking aperitif but hits the spot with rich desserts too. Sally Easton, Winewisdom, 13 January 2013Lovely bright rose petal pink colour. Sweet ripe strawberry nose, aromatic and enticing. Feel that bit of juicy, sweet fruit in a good way. This is attractive and easy to drink. Jacqui Morley, Blackpool Gazette, 10 August 2013, Pop your cork for feel good factorIt's deceptively pale rose in colour (no red wine is added to boost the natural colour) but big in flavour. Fine bubble mousse delivered short sharp shocks of raspberry juiciness, the bouquet is all wild strawberries. It's a cracking aperitif but hits the spot with rich desserts too. Brian Elliott, Scotland on Sunday, 22nd December 2013, For sparkling rose...Burgundy rather than to the Champagne region.It has a creamy raspberry and red currant flavours and an impressive vibrant style. |
