Bouvet Crémant de Loire Excellence Brut
Straw-gold color, fine bubbles, expressive fruit – the Bouvet Ladubay Excellence Brut is a Crémant de Loire with true character. Behind the Bouvet Ladubay brand is one of the oldest sparkling wine estates in the Loire, founded in 1851 in Saumur.
In the glass, it displays ripe apple fruit and a subtle smoky note that pleasantly complements the fruit. The perlage is creamy and fine, the finish dry and fresh. Readers of the wine magazine Weinwirtschaft have voted it Crémant of the Year nine times in a row – a testament to its consistent quality across vintages.
Well chilled at 7–9 °C as an aperitif, with Loire goat cheese or a light fish dish. Those who appreciate Champagne but are looking for a lighter style will find a compelling alternative from the Loire Valley here.

Quick answers
How does the Bouvet Crémant de Loire Excellence Brut taste?
Dry and fresh, with ripe apple fruit and a light smoky note in the background. The perlage is creamy and fine, the finish clear and animating — not a heavy sparkling wine, but a light-footed style.
Is this a good champagne substitute?
If you appreciate champagne but are looking for a slightly lighter style, this is the right choice. As a Crémant de Loire from Saumur, it follows the traditional bottle fermentation method, but enters the glass with less pressure and a more delicate perlage.
What does the Crémant pair best with?
It makes a good impression as an aperitif, as well as with oysters, seafood, and light fish dishes. Classically for the Loire region, it also pairs well with fresh goat cheese — such as a Crottin de Chavignol.
At what temperature should I serve it?
Best at 8–10 °C — well-chilled, but not ice-cold. Served too cold, it loses its apple fruit and fine smoky note.
How long can I store it?
Crémant is not a wine for long-term storage in the classic sense — it is designed for freshness. Stored in a cool, dark place (wine cellar or fridge), it remains in good shape, but should not be kept for years.
What is the story behind the name Bouvet Ladubay?
The house was founded in 1851 in Saumur and is one of the oldest sparkling wine estates in the Loire. The Weinwirtschaft has voted the Excellence Brut Crémant of the Year nine times in a row — proof of consistent quality.
The Domaine
Bouvet Ladubay – Loire elegance since 1851. 23-year-old Étienne Bouvet and his wife Célestine Ladubay founded the traditional house and conquered an eight-kilometer-long cellar vault in Saint-Hilaire-Saint-Florent. Today, the fifth generation leads the house.
In spectacular tuff stone cathedrals, the magic of the Loire matures: 7 million bottles annually, 60 percent export. With the Méthode Traditionnelle, sparkling perfection is created – from Chenin Blanc to Cabernet Franc.
"Official supplier to the British Parliament" – a title that stands for quality. Whether Crémant de Loire, Saumur Brut, or Rosé Excellence: Here you get Champagne complexity without the Champagne price. Authentic Loire lifestyle in the glass.
