Maison Louis Picamelot
Maison Louis Picamelot
Created in 1926, Maison Louis Picamelot is one of the oldest producers of Crémant de Bourgogne, recognized for its attachment to the great limestone terroirs of the region. Under the direction of Philippe Chautard, the house has taken a qualitative turn by selecting specific parcels and refining its vinification methods.
The grapes, from vineyards mainly located in the Côte Chalonnaise and Côte de Beaune, are hand-harvested and vinified with extreme precision. Fermentation and aging are done in stainless steel tanks and oak barrels for some exceptional crémants. The mousse takes a long time, with aging on laths for more than 36 months, conferring remarkable finesse and complexity to the bubbles.
What distinguishes Louis Picamelot is its commitment to producing haute couture crémants, rivaling the greatest Champagne houses.
