Monmousseau - (France)

Monmousseau logo

What's in a name? In 1886 Alcide Monmousseau founded a winery that specialized entirely in creating and raising Sparkling wines in the classic way as in Champagne where the wine gets its pearls on the bottle. In the shadow of the famous castle of Chenonceau, huge cellars were dug out of one of the largest Tuffo layers in France. This white rock was not only used to build castles and abbeys, but is also ideal as a thermoregulatory material for the storage and aging of sparkling wines. The wines therefore receive a long maturation sur lattes, making them among the finest and most balanced in the region. They also pride themselves on exceptional mastery of blending. Their Crémant de Loire therefore consists of 6 different grapes, all of which contribute to the ideal assembly.

Loire France
picture of Crémant de Loire - Brut
Beautiful, clear, yellow color with delicate bubble. The bouquet reveals itself with hints of yellow fruit, a touch of grenadine and hints of toasted bread. Nice balance between fruit obtained by Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc, with the Chenin providing a delicious touch of citrus. Refreshing and nicely balanced, dry finish.
Loire France

Beautiful clear and light rosé color accompanied by a fine pearl. Fresh red fruit such as strawberry and raspberry with a tip of pink pepper is released volatile. This is confirmed in the mouth and we get a tantalizing and delicate symphony of these fruits. Nicely refined and fresh in the mouth. Dry and challenging finish that activates the happiness.
