Thierry Tissot Bugey Blanc Brut Methode Traditionnelle
Bottle Size: 750 mL
Region: France
Their Bugey Blanc Brut méthode traditionelle sparkling wine is made with organically-farmed, estate altesse, chardonnay, jacquère, and aligoté. It is an ideal apéritif wine, with a distinctive alpine flavor profile and elegant balance. Céline and Thierry Tissot are demonstrating that top-quality méthode traditionelle sparklers can be made in Bugey, transmitting a clear and unique Bugey identity. The Tissots have been pushing the envelope by developing their traditional method sparkling wines with a long lees-aging regimen.
One would be hard-pressed to find anyone as devoted to the concepts of ‘sustainable’ and ‘local’ as Thierry and Céline Tissot. Their vision is of a sustainable ecological future with a thriving local economy to pass on to their two children. All one has to do is admire the privileged vineyards the Tissots farm along the steep mountainsides surrounding their village of Vaux-en-Bugey. Here, Thierry has committed to replanting with traditional local varieties, namely altesse and mondeuse.
