Maison Trenel Fils Creme de Framboise de Bourgogne

Maison Trénel Fils Crème de Framboise de Bourgogne is a beautifully concentrated raspberry liqueur from Burgundy that captures the pure, vibrant essence of ripe red berries. Rich yet balanced, it delivers intense raspberry flavor with natural freshness and refined sweetness. Crafted by one of Burgundy’s historic fruit-liqueur houses, this elegant crème is equally at home in Champagne cocktails, classic French aperitifs, or drizzled over desserts.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Maison Trénel Fils is a traditional Burgundian producer renowned for its fruit liqueurs, drawing on regional expertise in crafting crème-style liqueurs from carefully selected fruit. The house focuses on sourcing high-quality fruit varieties that deliver aromatic purity and concentrated flavor.

For the Crème de Framboise de Bourgogne, Trénel selects aromatic red raspberries harvested between June and mid-July, when the fruit reaches peak sweetness and fragrance.

The raspberries are gently macerated in neutral spirit, allowing the natural fruit flavors and color to infuse gradually into the alcohol. This traditional maceration process extracts the essence of the berries while preserving their bright acidity and vivid aromatics.

The finished liqueur is bottled at approximately 18% ABV, a classic strength for French crème-style fruit liqueurs that balances richness with drinkability.

The result is a deeply colored ruby liqueur with remarkable fruit concentration and finesse—an expression of Burgundy’s longstanding tradition of fruit-based aperitif liqueurs.
