Appellation: Crémant de Loire

October 4, 2010

Philippines Wine Shop Clark Wine Center is pleased to share with you articles, news and information about wine, wine events, wine tasting and other topics related to wine and the appreciation of wine.

Although Crémant de Loire can be made anywhere in the Anjou-Saumur and Touraine  region, the rules governing production are more stringent than for other sparkling wines. All grapes must be hand harvested, and the minimum aging period is longer than for other Loire Valley sparkling wines (one year, as opposed to nine months for Saumur Brut). And while a wide range of varietals may be used, including Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and local specialties such as Pineau d’Aunis and Grolleau, the wines are primarily made from Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc.

Although wines are widely available in most Asian countries, especially in Hong Kong which has eliminated import tariff on wines altogether, the availability of fine vintage wines is still very scarce.  Most wine merchants offer big names, young vintages and cheaper wines for everyday consumption.  Wine lovers and connoisseurs looking for something special often travel to Clark Pampanga Philippines to do their shopping at this Wine Shop in Manila.

At Yats Wine Cellars we believe that a little bit of knowledge in wine goes a long way to developing expectations in the wines we choose to buy or drink.  Without expectation, it is difficult to really enjoy wine to its fullest.  With this in mind, efforts are made by Yats Wine Cellars to make it as easy and enjoyable as possible for our clients to learn more about wine.

Birthday wine gifts is one of the most popular birthday gifts to give someone living in the Philippines.  Fine Vintage wine from Yats Wine Cellars is a sure winner and it does not have to cost a great deal to send someone a bottle in Philippines
