Saumur Brut
Saumur Brut is a sparkling wine produced in the Saumur region of the Loire Valley in France. It is primarily made from the Chenin Blanc grape, although other varieties like Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc can also be included. This wine is known for its crisp acidity and fruity flavors, often featuring notes of green apple, pear, and citrus.
The production method for Saumur Brut typically involves the traditional method, also known as méthode champenoise, where the wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle. This process creates fine bubbles and contributes to its complex flavor profile, making it a popular choice for celebrations and special occasions.
