This elegant blend is born from the union of Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc. The sensory profile opens with an enveloping \u003cstrong\u003ebouquet of white flowers\u003c\/strong\u003e and green apple, enriched by nuances of ripe pear, citrus fruits and a subtle hint of brioche and vanilla. On the palate, it is dry, fresh and endowed with a rich and harmonious flavour profile. The \u003cstrong\u003efine and persistent perlage\u003c\/strong\u003e caresses the palate, leading the tasting towards a clean, mineral and distinctly dry finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe soul of this wine lies in the heart of France's winemaking region, with deep roots in the territories of Saumur, complemented by selections from Anjou and Touraine. The region's \u003cstrong\u003esiliceous-limestone and schist soils\u003c\/strong\u003e impart a vibrant mineral character and a taut drinkability to the grapes. The historic Langlois-Chateau winery matures the wine within cool \u003cstrong\u003eunderground limestone cellars\u003c\/strong\u003e, a natural environment that ensures constant temperatures, favouring an extremely regular prise de mousse.

The vinification of the individual parcels proceeds in \u003cstrong\u003etemperature-controlled stainless steel tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e, preserving the primary aromatic integrity. After separating the pressings, the blend is enriched with reserve wines to enhance structural complexity. This is followed by a second fermentation in the bottle, concluded by a patient \u003cstrong\u003eageing on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e for over twenty-four months, essential for defining the perfect flavour balance and fine texture.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1912 in the Loire Valley, Langlois-Chateau stands as an elegant benchmark for \u003cstrong\u003eSaumur sparkling wines\u003c\/strong\u003e.
