Description

Founded in 1864, Gratien Meyer is an institution in Saumur with the cellar carved out of ancient tuffeau stone on the river bank overlooking the Loire River. Alfred Gratien went on shortly after to forge great success with champagne making also. This leading Loire sparkling producer employs quality production from vineyard to bottle. 100% hand-picked fruit from vineyards in Saumur, only first pressing used. The Cremant de Loire Appellation is among the most demanding as far as quality control goes for sparkling wine appellations in France. Method Traditionelle secondary fermentation in bottle followed by 36 months on lees (appellation only requires 12 months), stored in the extensive underground ‘caves’ at cellar. This fine Cremant de Loire (comprises 50% Chenin blanc, 40% Chardonnay; 10% Cabernet Franc which adds weight and body) brims with aromas and flavours of green apples, citrus and quince – typical of Chenin Blanc – complimented with a touch of bready complexity.  Persistence of flavour and lovely lip-smacking acidity in this classy French bubbly. It’s a winner for quality and price. Perfect as an aperitif.
