Taille Princesse white and rosé on ice
Last Monday I was at a special soirée organised by Bouvet-Ladubay at their premises in Saint-Florent Saint Hilaire, which is just to the west of Saumur and the historical centre of sparkling wine production in Saumur. The evening starting with a glass or two of Taille Princess, white and rosé. This sparkling wine was created by actor Gérard Depardieu, who owns Château de Tigné in the Layon, and Patrice Monmousseau, the president directeur-general of Bouvet and this week's mystery man.
We then moved through the cellars where we were entertained by a series of trapeze, tight rope etc. performers before moving onto dinner. During dinner we were joined by the band that had played earlier on in the evening. Patrice 'Miles' Monmousseau was breifly content with conducting using a knife before grabbing a trumpet and joining in.
Blow hard!
Other members of the band:
Serious business this music!
