Vinification of the Crémant from Bouvet-Ladubay The Crémant from Bouvet-Ladubay is produced in the renowned wine region of the Val de Loire, which, with its cool climate and nutrient-rich soils, offers optimal conditions for the Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc grape varieties. Cultivation takes place on selected plots that guarantee uniform ripening of the grapes. Here the vines benefit from the ideal combination of calcareous soil and a moderate microclimate. The grapes are harvested by hand to bring only the best fruit into the cellar. This ensures gentle processing and preserves the natural aromas of the Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc grapes. After gentle pressing, a slow and controlled fermentation at low temperature follows, which contributes to the development of fruity and floral nuances. The second fermentation, the traditional Champagne method, takes place in the bottle. This is where the fine perlage develops, giving the sparkling wine its characteristic liveliness. The subsequent maturation phase on the lees lasts several months and provides the typical brioche note and full-bodied creaminess. The wine is aged in cool cellars, which optimally preserves the freshness and precise aromatics. The result is an elegant Crémant from Bouvet-Ladubay that expresses the typical style of the Val de Loire and delights with its fine balance between fruit, freshness and yeast aromas. The meticulous vinification guarantees an outstanding sparkling wine that impressively reflects the terroir and craftsmanship of the Bouvet-Ladubay estate.
