Montlouis-sur-Loire, with its unique Chenin grape variety, offers an incredible diversity of tastes and styles. Wines range from crisp, dry wines to semi-dry, soft dry wines, mellow wines and fine bubbles. Montlouis also boasts a unique soil and, above all, daring winemakers who know how to make the many facets of their appellation shine.<br \/>\nWines that will go formidably well with the festive season.<br \/>\nPassage en revue&#8230;.   <\/p>\n<p>Montlouis-sur-Loire M\u00e9thode Traditionnelle Cuv\u00e9e des Anges<br \/>\nCave des Producteurs<br \/>\nThis lively, straightforward, pure wine combines aromas of grapefruit and lightly roasted dried fruit on a fresh, taut palate.

A lovely sweetness on the palate, supported by acidity that makes for a very well-balanced wine. It never ceases to caress the palate.
