      Tasting Notes and Description
      Pale gold with amber tints, crystal-clear fine bubbles.
      The ripe combination of Chenin and Chardonnay gives this always-delicious wine its richness and slightly creamy texture. It is ripe, full-bodied with melon and peach flavours as well as crisper acidity. This limited-production wine is smooth and rich at the end.

      Drink now with sunshine and a smile.

      Delicious with fish, chicken, and white meats.

      The wine is crafted by méthode traditionelle (i.e. Champagne fashion) in Ladubays high-tech winery in St-Hilaire-St-Florent. The wine is crystal clear with pale gold and amber tints. Hints of honey mingle with fresh fruit on the nose. On the palate it is full-bodied fresh and beautifully balanced.

      Since 1851, Bouvet Ladubay has been one of France's greatest producers of méthode traditionnelle sparkling wine, using the Loire Valley's indigenous Chenin Blanc blended with small amounts of Chardonnay, and using Cabernet Franc for rosé. In 1933, the Monmousseau family purchased the property and today continues to manage this legendary French estate.

      "Bright, luminous white gold with green reflections. Restrained fragrance, subtle yeasty aromas, elderflower, white peach. Noticeable fruit expression and creamy mousse on the palate, light body. Juicy, round finish."
      90 points.
      Falstaff Magazine (October 2023)

      "Attractive floral and orchard fruit characters with warm toatsy hints; seductive and creamy with a vibrant mousse and long finish."
