Montlouis-sur-Loire Bubulle Lise et Bertrand Jousset 2018

The wine

This is the domain’s sparkling wine, a Chenin vinified in barrels without additives, sulphur or dosage. On the nose, it is especially expressive, giving off aromas of white fruits as well as floral notes. On the palate, it is perfectly balanced between freshness and minerality on one side, and richness and density on the other, with a certain indulgence in its fruit. It is perfect for an aperitif or a meal alike, particularly if it involves a salty dish.

About the Producer Lise et Bertrand Jousset

Domaine Lise et Bertrand Jousset was founded in Montlouis-sur-Loire in 2004. The vineyard, which spans around 8 hectares of vines aged between 5 and 100 years, is grown organically, largely following biodynamic principles. On certain parcels, machines are banned, with work carried out only by hand or with horses. The harvests are also carried out by hand. In the winery, the processes are very natural with little intervention, with a pressing that is slow and gentle. No additives are used aside from very small doses of sulphur. Vinification takes place in barrels of 225, 400 and 600 litres with a maximum of 10% new wood in order to avoid marking the wine. The iDealwine has found a particular favourite in the wines of Lise and Bertrand Jousset, their cuvées being frank, flavoursome, elegant and precise. Some truly fine Loire Chenins!
