Louis Despas Crémant de Loire Brut Rosé sparkling wine France (3 x 0.75l)

• STORY: The Loire Valley is not only famous for its magnificent castles. The diverse wines that come from the vineyards of the royal river have also contributed to the fame and prestige of the region.

• AGEING: After the careful pressing, the first alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. According to the méthode traditionnelle, the second fermentation takes place in the bottle (champagne process). The crémant then matures for many months in the deep chalk limestone cellars until it is perfect.

• AROMA: Fruity aromatic bouquet with delicate hints of red berries and a hint of brioche.

• ASSESSMENT: Classic bottle fermentation and at least 12 months of aging on the fine lees give Despas Crémant Rosé its gentle fullness and at the same time form the elegant framework for its subtle yet very present red berry fruit with a hint of citrus freshness.

• SERVING RECOMMENDATION: As a refreshing aperitif, with fine starters, meat and poultry dishes (e.g. roast duck breast on lettuce with raspberry vinaigrette) or fruity desserts (panna cotta with fresh strawberries).
  

The Loire Valley is not only famous for its magnificent castles. The diverse red, white and rosé wine qualities that come from the wine-growing areas on both banks of the royal river have also contributed to the fame and reputation of the region. With its fragrant, elegant mousseux and crémants, the Loire is also France's most important sparkling wine producer after Champagne. The elegant sparkling wine qualities of Louis Despas are also produced in the Loire department of Maine et Loire. These selected wines are perfected during their long aging in the deep cellars of the ancient Abbey of Saint Hilaire - Saint Florent, which was once built of the same chalky limestone as the famous chateaux of the Loire.
