Term for methode traditionnelle wines produced outside Champagne?

• A. Sekt
• B. Cremant
• C. Cava
• D. Franciacorta

Answer: (B)

The term for sparkling wines made with the traditional method outside Champagne in France is Crémant. These wines come from regions like Alsace, Loire, Bourgogne, and others, and they use the same bottle-fermentation process as Champagne, just outside the Champagne region. The name Crémant signals both the method and the French origin outside Champagne. Sekt is German, Cava is Spanish, and Franciacorta is Italian; each represents the traditional-method style in its own country, but they aren’t the French label for non-Champagne traditional-method sparklers.
