Tasting Notes
Served well chilled, Vin Sauvage Monluc is traditionally enjoyed as an aperitif. It also forms the base of the famous Pousse Rapière cocktail, when combined with Château Monluc's Pousse Rapière Liqueur.
Production
For this sparkling brut, base wines are first produced from the white grape varieties Ugni-Blanc and Gros Manseng. The different batches are aged, tasted, and then blended to form the cuvée. This is then bottled with yeast and sugar liqueur for a second fermentation in the bottle, which creates the bubbles. The yeasts are then removed by disgorgement, before the addition of the dosage liqueur to bring it back to level.
