Crémant de Bourgogne Cellar Tour & Tasting at Vitteaut-Alberti

Descend into the storied cellars of Vitteaut-Alberti, Burgundy's finest Crémant house, for a guided tour and an expert-led tasting of four sparkling cuvées. A sparkling revelation just minutes from the port.

What to expect

You pass through glistening chalk-white cellars stacked floor-to-ceiling with riddling racks as your guide explains how Crémant de Bourgogne achieves its fine, persistent mousse. The tasting room is elegant and unhurried, with four distinct cuvées — Blanc de Blancs, Rosé, Vintage, and Prestige — each poured with thoughtful commentary. The house is only 30 minutes from Chalon, making it perfectly port-friendly. Bottles may be purchased and packed for travel.
