Tasting note:

Exceptionally priced, vintage-dated Burgundian bubbly. There’s a maturity to this sparkling wine, giving off warm aromas of toasted bread and nuts that echo on the palate as well as some tangy citrus and a hint of tea. Well-balanced, refreshing and crisp. A simple, toasty bubbly with toasty aromas. Good budget sparkler for parties. Food matches: fried calamari, penne carbonara.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Cave de Lugny is a co-operative comprised of over 250 estates. This exceptionally priced, vintage-dated Burgundian sparkler offers a nice maturity. A wonderful bubbly with warm suggestions of toasted bread and nuts on both the nose and palate, with tangy citrus and a hint of tea adding to the fun. Well-balanced, crisp and refreshing, this is a complex crémant. Source: Vintages Wine Panel
