history
Alliance Loire is a group of winegrowers who decided in 2002 to pool their resources in order to offer a complete range of authentic, well-balanced wines from Muscadet to Vouvray along the Loire River. The winegrowers are driven by the strong but simple values of the modern cooperative - solidarity, respect and creativity - values enhanced by a real team spirit, which enriches each stage of the wine production process. https://youtu.be/NUNatyrFKzI?si=oUjiMJ2ANLWG_HRE
Vineyard
The production area of Crémant de Loire in the south of the Loire region extends over 2700 hectares. The grapes in this vintage are a blend from selected terroirs, mainly of clayey limestone.Various soils including tufa limestone (the limestone which was also used to build the famous Loire Valley castles.Vines : 20-30 years - 61 hectares (150 acres) - Yield : 4T/acre.
Winemaking
Once the grapes have been picked by hand, the cuvée is made according to the "traditional method" of vinification ( 2nd fermentation in the bottle followed by 12-18 months storage before disgorging) and matured for a minimum of 12 months in our tuffeau cellars. The delicate expression of the Cabernet Franc and the Grolleau brings fresh berries hints to this sparkling wine.
