Leading wine supplier in Philippines discusses wine related topics About Burgundy Wine in Philippines Names: Put the Fizz into Life with Crémant de Bourgogne

 

 

As the popularity of sparkling wine at celebrations and receptions increases, so the sales of Crémant de Bourgogne grow.

Each year, over 1.6 million bottles are exported, twice that of ten years ago. Crémant is made according to the traditional ‘Champagne method’ but retails much more reasonably in the shops.

The production of sparkling wine is largely restricted to three regions in Burgundy: around Auxerre, Châtillon-sur-Seine and the Côte Chalonnaise (principally Rully) in the south.

In fact it was in Rully, back in 1826 that the Petiot brothers made the first sparkling wines called ‘Fleur de Champagne’. It was a lightening success and other producers soon imitated them.

Crémant de Bourgogne can be made using several types of grape: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Gamay ‘jus blanc’, Aligoté, Melon and Sacy. Each grape has its own distinctive taste and with skilful blending techniques, produces a definable style. Pinot Noir gives a richness and robustness, a Chardonnay brings the aromas of white blossom and toast. The Gamay recommends itself for its juiciness, vivacity and volume, Aligoté’s unique acidity increases the wine’s effervescence. Granted an appellation controllée in 1975, the four categories are as follows:

1.         Le crémant de Bourgogne blanc

Minimum 30% Pinot Noir and/or Chardonnay producing a well balanced sparkling wine with a complex aroma

2.         Le crémant de Bourgogne blanc de blancs

Principally made from the Chardonnay grape, this is a fresh and vivacious sparkling wine, ideal for apéritifs

3.         Le crémant de Bourgogne blanc de noirs

From the Pinot Noir grape

4.         Le crémant de Bourgogne rosé

Made from the Pinot Noir alone or with a little Gamay for a very fruity flavour

Recent surge of investments going into Clark Philippines drained Clark Freeport of prime land available for long-term leases.  Investors now look for partnerships and acquisition opportunities with existing businesses located in Clark Philippines.

 

Three new casinos, another world-class 36-hole golf course, several new hotels and resorts of varying class of luxury have opened in Philippines Clark Freeport over the last six months.  Samsung Electronics just broke ground for a US$5 billion electronics plant, coincidentally in a location adjacent to the US$2 billion plant of US chip manufacturer Texas Instruments.  Hundreds of hectares of prime land in the 4200-hectare main zone of Clark Freeport have quickly been occupied.  Almost the entire central business district has gone off the map of available land in this fast-growth investment destination.

 

With its near-zero crime rate, low pollution levels, absence of traffic congestion and a favorable tax structure, Clark Freeport is well known among foreign investors as the destination of choice.  Now that the Clark International Airport (DMIA) has flung into full operations with dozens of flights linking Clark to all major cities in Asia and some beyond, Clark Freeport, Pampanga has come of age.
