history
In 1957, around forty winegrowers grouped together to confront the economic difficulties of the era, pooling far more than mere financial concerns. At the time, Robert, Marcel, Yvon, Geneviève and the others, hailing from the same terroir, hewn from the same rock and sharing the same time-honoured values, set up their cooperative at the top of the hill in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg. “They chose to share their experience, their expertise and their dreams„
Vineyard
The Saumur vineyards cover over 800 hectares on the Southern bank of the Loire River. The grapes come from selected clay-limestone, tufa chalk, and shale terroirs to the South of the Saumur area. Careful ageing in our tufa chalk cellars enhances its freshness and finesse. 15 years-old vines (average) - yield 65 hl/ha - vineyard of 15 ha
Winemaking
Handpicking of grapes, light pressing and cool fermentation (18°C) to preserve all the aromas. Second fermentation of selected wines in the bottle (according to the Méthode Traditionnelle)./nThe bottles are stocked on racks for at least 18 to 24 months (minimum) in our tufa cellars to develop an incomparably fine bead.
Tasting notes
Lovely pink color with brilliant highlights. Elegant and regular bead. Subtle nose, combining the freshness and the fruity bouquet of Cabernet franc (red berries, strawberry, cherry). Lively initial impression on the palate with a well-balanced structure and an elegant follow-through. A lovely and persistent aftertaste.
Food pairing
Enjoy chilled, this Crémant de Loire rosé Brut is an excellent aperitif. It is also an ideal partner for starters and desserts (chocolate pie, cheesecake, fruit salad).
Aging potential
3 years.
