Château Monplaisir – Bordeaux Rouge
Les crémants de Bordeaux sont des vins "mousseux" blanc ou rosé. Issus de la région de l'Entre-Deux-Mers, les spécificités de ces vins sont fortement liées à leur terroir ainsi qu'à l'influence climatique océanique et tempérée de la région. Situés entre la Garonne et la Dordogne, les vignobles de crémant bénéficient d'un taux élevé d'humidité essentiel à leur élaboration, selon la méthode champenoise.
The estate belongs to Bénédicte Bosselut, a winegrower who works with her husband on a 20 hectare vineyard. This land, rich in history, belonged to Bénédicte's maternal grandmother, who brought in her harvests when her husband was at war in 1939.

winemaking and ageing
Cold soaking before fermentation (4 to 15°C for several days) for the ripest grapes, to obtain more intense fruity notes. Thermovinification of part of the harvest to obtain a must rich in colour and fruity aromas. Alcoholic fermentation (controlled temperature, selected yeasts) with 2 to 3 weeks on skins to provide a round and supple wine. Ageing in stainless-steel and concrete tanks.
