This charming sparkling wine is a unique Crémant de Bourgogne thanks to the delicate pink hue which comes from the blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Gamay grapes. Ideal for drinking as an aperitif or in a relaxed setting with friends, this delicious bubly offers attractive aromas of redcurrants, raspberries and aromatic white flowers. The first sip reveals a smooth mousse, vibrant freshness and seductive ripe red berry flavours which make it an excellent partner for cheeses, charcuterie, or light salads.
To create the attractive pale rosy hue, the grapes are carefully macerated for a short time to gain a small amount of colour from the skins. The fruit is then pressed with each varietal being handled separately until the final blending phase. The grape must is then fermented according to the traditional method which is exactly the same winemaking process used for Crémant de Bourgogne’s more famous cousin, Champagne. The sparkling wine is then aged for 12 months to preserve freshness while adding extra complexity and structure.
Louis Bouillot is one of the top producers of Cremant de Bourgogne and the estate has been producing these elegant sparkling wines since 1877. Today the estate combines their heritage and generations of winemaking experience with modern techniques and equipment which allow them to produce stunning examples of these traditional sparkling wines.

Louis Bouillot Perle d'Aurore Cremant de Bourgogne Rose
As someone who has been ordering wine online regularly (22 orders and dozens of bottles since 2022), I have long appreciated 8Wines for offering access to interesting international labels and boutique styles that aren’t always readily available locally. However, a platform's true character isn't revealed when everything goes right; it's tested when a high-value bottle arrives compromised, and that is where 8Wines falls remarkably short. Over the last few years, I’ve spent well over €3,500 with 8Wines. When you spend consistently on a platform, you expect a baseline of mutual trust, especially when purchasing premium bottles where structural integrity is everything. Unfortunately, encountering damaged or flawed bottles on two separate occasions has brought to light a rigid, customer-unfriendly claims policy. A bottle of Susana Balbo Signature Malbec arrived completely cooked and oxidized. Despite detailing the structural defects, the customer service team deflected responsibility, demanded unreasonable layers of proof, and ultimately offered reward points rather than issuing a proper refund or replacement. One year later, another bottle, this time a high-end wine - the Caymus California Cabernet Sauvignon arrived leaking in the box with visible stain traces under the capsule. Upon opening, the cork failure was undeniable, and the wine showed the distinct, flat overcooked notes of premature oxidation rather than its intended opulent fruit profile. Instead of acknowledging that cork failure and transport leakage, the 8Wines’ support team engaged in gaslighting. They attempted to lecture about the "jammy profile of the Wagner family." They argued that a leaking, stained bottle with a dry cork and premature oxidation was normal. Rather than standing behind the quality of their high-end stock, 8Wines offered a standard deflection playbook: no blame accepted, no refund given, and a small allocation of reward points thrown in as an appeasement. For a loyal customer who has spent thousands on the platform, being compensated with virtual points for a cooked, expensive wine is a disappointing resolution. Final Verdict 8Wines has an attractive catalogue and smooth shipping logistics when bottles survive the trip intact. But if you gamble on buying expensive, premium bottles here, be aware that you carry all the financial risk. If a cork fails or a bottle cooks in transit, don't expect a refund, expect a corporate email trying to convince you that flawed wine is just part of the "winemaker's style," followed by a handful of reward points to close the ticket, that if you insist upon, otherwise you will be left empty handed. Moving forward, I will reserve my purchases for everyday, lower-risk bottles, and buy any high-end, premium investments strictly from physical storefronts where visual inspection and immediate returns are actually honored.
