The last independent family house... In the heart of Saumur, discover the Maison Louis de Grenelle.
Located 12 meters underground in the heart of Saumur, Maison Louis de Grenelle has been producing Crémant de Loire and Saumur brut since 1859, in pure tradition. The old tufa quarry dug in the XNUMXth century houses the secrets of the traditional method.
With the guides from Maison Louis de Grenelle, you will discover how, in this unique place, the metamorphosis of our carefully selected grapes into Fines Bulles takes place.
You will share the passion for a profession and the conviviality of a working cellar where 4 million bottles lie dormant in conditions of optimal temperature and humidity.
In order to immerse yourself in the sensory world of Fines Bulles from Maison Louis de Grenelle, they have created a 130m2 tasting and boutique space.
You will be welcomed individually or in a group by qualified staff, who will introduce you to the art of tasting, while discovering the different varieties of our Saumur and Crémant de Loire wines. The guided tour is followed by a commented tasting and personalized.
Unusual: Escape Game in the cellar! Locked in a room in the heart of the troglodyte cellars, you have 60 minutes to get out. This is the challenge proposed by the House. A fun activity to enjoy with family or friends (by reservation, more information on the website).
To know: second shop in the city center, Hémisphère, 25 rue de la Tonnelle in Saumur.
“All my life I have transmitted my passion through wine. It is a magic that transports to unknown worlds that brings together family and friends to share a meal, to evoke memories. I love wine for the conviviality it creates. ”
