Like the renditions of Patrick Bottex (reviewed elsewhere in this issue) and Domaine Renardat-Fache, Bernard Rondeau's non-vintage Bugey Cerdon is a pink, 8.5% alcohol -methode ancestrale- sparkling Gamay that only a hardened wine snob could resist, much less hate. Brimming with fresh strawberries and red raspberries tinged with lemon zest and salt, it displays subtle creaminess alongside its fresh fruit vivacity and fine mousse, and refreshes simply, yet with impressive persistence and less obvious sweetness than most wines of its ilk. Enjoy it on its own anytime or with fruits or cheeses but buy from a merchant who can vouch for the wine's having recently been bottled.
