Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2017 Méthode Ancestrale Une Bulle bursts with aromas of apple skin, dried white flowers and marzipan, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and nicely concentrated palate with a ripe core of fruit but excellent freshness and precision. While economic factors mean that much crémant is necessarily nothing more than a cheap Champagne substitute, this has considerable character and a style all of its own, so it is well worth seeking out. It spent 23 months sur lattes and finished up with ten grams per liter natural residual sugar. Gautier Roussille tells me that the 2018 rendition will contain less residual sugar.

Description
The wine Une Bulle is an example of the Guillemot Michel winery, created to honour the wedding of Sophie and Gautier, children of the founders of this winery. Like other examples, this wine is made from Chardonnay grapes from the vineyards of the Guillemot-Michel family.
The philosophy of this family winery is based on the non-chemical maintenance of the soil and avoiding as much as possible the addition of non-natural products that serve as herbicides or as a stimulant in the fermentation phase.
Winemaking
Une Bulle wine is made with fruit at its optimum ripeness level, which is harvested by hand, applying ancestral techniques known as Crémant and Champagne or "campenoise". Through this method, the natural sugars of the fruit are used, so it is required that they are harvested at a point of lower acidity and that they are more aromatic.
After harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed, destemmed and the must is extracted to start fermentation in stainless steel barrels. Then, when the wine contains only enough sugars to produce the gas characteristic of this wine, it is bottled and left to macerate for at least 15 months. During this period, the wine evolves thanks to the yeasts that remain enclosed in the bottle.
Taste
The Guillemot Michel Une Bulle wine has an aroma of sweet fruits and a fleshy, concentrated taste, with a lively level of acidity.
A special wine
Guillemot Michel Une Bulle is a wine that denotes subtlety and elegance in every sip. It is an ideal wine to be tasted with appetizers such as fruits or also white meats and matured cheeses.
