Vinification
Very careful sorting. The grapes are destemmed, before
being transferred to the fermenting vats. We do cold
maceration at around 5 degrees for 5 to 7 days to extract
flavor and color with frequent pumping over. Hereafter
the temperature is increased. which initiates the alcohol
fermentation. We only use natural yeast. During the
fermentation, which takes 10 to 12 days, we do light
pushdowns. When the alcoholic fermentation has
finished, we continue the maceration for 2 to 4 days. Ageing for 10 months, of which 7 months (≈15% new barrels
and the rest in 1 – 3 years old barrels) and 3 months in stainless steel tank before being
bottled without filtration.

About Dom. Albert Sounit
Crémant de Bourgogne is the specialization of this small house that is located in Rully, the heart of the Crémant de Bourgogne region. The sparkling wines of Sounit are regularly labeled as extremely beautiful wines by the international press. In addition, they feed a number of beautiful silent white and red wines on a small scale, whereby respect for the "terroir" is paramount. At Sounit wines are still being raised that are authentic to the Châlonnaise region. The wood upbringing (common for many burgundies) is applied in a balanced way, with the result: fresh, generous and yet robust Burgundy as the wines from this region should be.
