Tasting Notes: This Crémant balances fruitiness and acidity, unfolding notes of green apple, citrus, and a subtle hint of brioche. Its lively effervescence and crisp finish. Serving this sparkling wine chilled at 6-8°C (43-46°F), ideally within 3 years of purchase, is recommended to capture its freshness and vitality.

Pairing: The wine’s crisp acidity and elegant bubbles are particularly adept at complementing seafood appetizers; its refreshing character enhances the delicate flavors of oysters, shrimp cocktails, and seafood platters, offering a nice balance. An excellent choice for sushi and sashimi, where its freshness mirrors the clean taste of the fish.

For those who favor cheese, a Crémant du Jura served alongside a cheese board featuring soft and creamy selections such as Brie, Camembert, or a young Comté. Similarly, the acidity and liveliness of Crémant du Jura make it an excellent counterpoint to the saltiness and texture of a well-curated charcuterie board, enhancing the flavors of salamis, hams, and pâtés.

Poultry and light meat dishes, like roasted chicken or turkey, pair beautifully with Crémant du Jura, especially when accompanied by a fruit-based sauce that echoes the wine’s fruity notes. The wine also shines alongside vegetarian options, particularly those featuring mushrooms or squash, highlighting the dish's earthiness while balancing the wine's complexity (check out the recipe below).

Crémant du Jura’s compatibility extends to fried foods, where its bubbles adeptly cut through the fat, offering a palate-cleansing effect that readies the mouth for the next bite. This makes it a surprising yet excellent pairing for everything from fried chicken to vegetable tempura.
