The Lingot-Martin wine cellar is in Poncin in the French department of Ain, just a few kilometres from the town of Cerdon.
The wine cellar is well-known for its PDO Cerdon wines ('traditional method' sparkling rosé), as well as its PDO Bugey wines. This winegrowing region is 30 kilometres east of Bourg-en-Bresse, along the Lyon-Geneva axis.

The wine cellar was founded in 1970 and today is jointly run by 4 family members and friends who have been firmly rooted to this terroir for several generations, and who together, have managed to really get the best out of the Cerdon vineyard: Jean-Luc and Frédéric Guillon, David Boley and Eric Vucher.

The Cerdon 'Traditional Method': This ancient local tradition is to follow these steps in the winemaking process:
- harvesting and pressing
- partial fermentation at a low temperature to preserve the sweet taste and aromas, as well as the typical pink colour of the grape
- filtering to eliminate any yeast deposit
- bottling and final corking before consumption.
Characteristics of this wine:
- low alcohol content: 8%
- lightly sparkling
- very distinctive flavours from the grape varieties
This refreshing sparkling wine is great as a pre-dinner drink or with dessert, and is highly appreciated for its freshness and taste of red berries.
