Bain de Bulles Guy Wurtz (= Bath of bubbles, Gewurztraminer). It's advertised as a Pet Nat, but currently has no bubbles. Maybe just a slight tingle on the tongue. To be clear, this is not a sparkling wine at this time. However, whether it has bubbles or not doesn't really matter, the richness of the juice and the acidity are superb. We thought it might be low alcohol, but it's a proper 12.5%. We didn't feel the alcohol at all. The grapes are Gewurztraminer from Alsace. This is delicious.

Bain de Bulles (= Bath of bubbles). This sparkling wine is made from Muscat grapes in Alsace and has a rich fruitiness paired with vibrant acidity. Chilling it close to 0 degrees makes it very refreshing! Although it is not recommended for those who have been educated to consider V.A. (volatile acid) in wine as a defect, there is a dedicated fan base for wines where V.A. is expressed in a moderate and exquisite manner, positively enhancing the wine.

This Pet-Nat is made from old vines of Aligote in Puligny-Montrachet. It has a crisp, lemony flavor with refreshing bubbles. By the way, "Chassornade" is a word coined by Frédéric Cossard, combining "Chassorney" and "Lemonade". Yes, he wanted to make a Pet-Nat that tastes like lemonade! It's cloudy because it was released without disgorgement.

[Lot 2020]
Like other wines, it is produced every year, and the taste varies each time; however, there is no vintage labeling, and the same design label is used each year, making it hard to distinguish between them. There seems to be an issue with inventory data management or possibly a mistake in the warehouse, as two lots from the 2020 and 2021 vintages exist. This wine was not particularly intended for aging, so the practice was to sell out one lot before moving on to the next. However, tasting both wines side by side was quite interesting. The Aligoté from Puligny-Montrachet shows a stark difference between the 2020 and 2021 vintages. Indeed, this is a reasonable observation given the vintage differences between 2020 and 2021 in Burgundy.
