Vinification of Bouvet Ladubay Crémant de Loire

The production of Bouvet Ladubay Crémant de Loire follows traditional craftsmanship and state-of-the-art technology. The Saumur growing area in the heart of the Val de Loire, with its calcareous soils, offers first-class terroir for Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc. The vines are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness to guarantee the preservation of balanced freshness and intense aromas. The grapes are gently pressed to obtain only the best must for the base wine production.

The first fermentation takes place in a controlled manner at cool temperatures in order to preserve the fresh fruit aromas. After this process is complete, traditional bottle fermentation follows, which gives the Crémant its fine perlage and complexity. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle, followed by a long period of aging on the lees to develop the creamy brioche notes. The maturation is carried out under strict quality controls before the wine reaches the market.
