Production of the Crémant de Loire Brut Réserve - Langlois-Chateau

The grapes for the Crémant de Loire Brut Réserve - Langlois-Chateau come from selected sites along the Loire, one of France’s most historic wine regions. The moderate climate of the Val de Loire, with cool nights and sunny days, provides ideal conditions for sparkling wines marked by freshness and elegance. The soils range from calcareous tuffeau and clay to sandy parcels, lending the cuvée delicate mineral nuances.

The grapes are harvested selectively according to the optimum point of ripeness in order to preserve clear fruit and firm structure. Careful hand harvesting ensures intact grapes, followed by gentle pressing. Each grape variety is taken separately to the cellar, where cool fermentation preserves the aromatic expression of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc.

After the base wine has been prepared, traditional bottle fermentation follows. The cuvée is placed in the bottle together with the expedition dosage and yeast. The second fermentation in the bottle creates the fine, persistent bubbles and gives the Crémant additional depth. An extended period of ageing on the lees imparts notes of brioche, yeasty pastry and delicately toasted nuts, elegantly rounding out the fresh fruit character.

After the ageing period on the lees, riddling and subsequent disgorgement take place. The gentle removal of the lees keeps the sparkling wine clear and brilliant while retaining a finely creamy character. The brut dosage emphasises the cuvée’s freshness, firmness and precision. The Langlois-Chateau house places great importance on a style that centres on finesse, terroir expression and balance.

The winemaking style bears a clear signature: varietal fruit, firm, lively acidity and an extended period on the lees shape a sparkling wine of impressive elegance. Each bottle represents Langlois-Chateau’s long tradition on the Loire, combining the classic method with a modern understanding of refinement and drinking pleasure.
