Domaine Bruno Dangin makes extremely consistent Crémants of an impressively high quality from the municipality of Molesme in the northernmost part of Burgundy’s Côte d’Or. The domaine is located only three kilometers south of Aube close to the southern border of Champagne. Geographically, the terroir is a direct extension of Champagne’s southernmost appellation Côte des Bar, and historically the area was in Champagne until France’s first AOC law came into force in 1919 and re-drew the maps...

Conscientious vineyard work has always been the family’s priority, and the domaine is today certified organic led by Bruno’s son Matthieu Dangin. In the cellar, work is done with long ageing on the lees and dosage is always kept to an absolute minimum. A minute amount of sulphur is used, but Matthieu is increasingly experimenting with cuvées with no added sulphur. Domaine Bruno Dangin’s style is tight, acidic and dry, yet with a certain creaminess suitable for a classic Crémant.
