Founded in 1851 by Etienne Bouvet and taken over in 1932 by the Monmousseau family, whose descendant, Patrice Monmousseau, is the present Chairman. Our house has never ceased in its search for the best possible quality. Today, it is recognised as being one of the best in the whole of the Loire Valley. We have developed a varied approach to communication. Since1992, when Bouvet Ladubay bought back a former part of the company's heritage - 1,800 square metres of buildings, once the stables of an electricity production plant and the company theatre at the end of the last century - our communication policy has been developed around notions of creativity and culture. An art gallery: 3 or 4 exhibitions are held each year in the 800 m2 gallery under the artistic direction of Benoît Lemercier. Literature and Wine: Bouvet Ladubay is also the home of the National Wine and Literature Days. The management team is in charge of organising this national event which includes the awarding of 9 literary prizes and brings together a hundred authors and wine producers around the theme of Hedonism à la Française. The Art of Vin: over the last 150 years, it is wine which has certainly become the most famous of the arts which are celebrated here. 228 medals, diplomas and awards in the last 33 years, for the Bouvet LadubaySaumur Brut.See more
