Langlois Brut Reserve NV
Cremant de Loire
Langlois Brut Réserve is a standout in the world of Crémant, crafted from estate fruit sourced across six distinct vineyard areas in the Loire Valley. Grapes are hand harvested in small bins and gently pressed, with only the first press juice used. Each parcel and variety is vinified separately, and reserve wines are incorporated into the final blend, an uncommon practice in Crémant. The wine is aged for a minimum of 36 months, far beyond the appellation’s 12-month requirement, resulting in a complex, refined sparkling wine with remarkable depth and elegance.

Loire Valley, France
Langlois owns and manages 175 acres of the best AOC vineyards in the Loire Valley. Their Crémants are produced with standards far beyond the appellation requirements and even beyond Champagne AOC standards. They have an intensely terroir-focused approach of drawing the best characteristics from six distinct vineyards areas and soil types. The result is Méthode Champenoise wines of incredible finesse, further elevated by the expertise of the Bollinger Groupe, who acquired the estate in 1973 (their very first investment outside of Champagne).
