When he named his cuvée "Royal", Jean Baptiste Ackerman had one idea in mind: to impose the brand on the greatest tables in Europe and the world, which he succeeded in doing, notably by becoming the official supplier to Queen Victoria. The "Royal" cuvée was also crowned at the Great Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1855, where it took the bold step of winning the gold medal ahead of the famous brands of champagne.

Winery Description

Founded in 1811, Ackerman - the oldest fine bubbles house in Saumur - specialises in the production of Saumur and Crémant de Loire appellations, using the traditional method. Ackerman is a key player in the Loire Valley, and is the leading producer of fine bubbly wines in the Loire. 

Combining tradition and innovation, its blends with an expressive and aromatic style, offer you both great gastronomic vintages and daring vintages and are adapted to all your tasting moments. An experience filled with emotion, dear to its founder Jean-Baptiste Ackerman. Anchored in its territory, Maison Ackerman is also fully committed to the development of tourism and the promotion of its heritage.

Its troglodytic cellars - the highest in the region - contain an architectural jewel and host an evolving scenography combining wine, troglodytes and experiential art. Since 2009, this beautiful House of fine bubbles has been committed to supporting contemporary art and in particular since 2014 with the creation of an Artists' Residence: Ackerman + Fontevraud. The Maison Ackerman is recognised by the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Development as a reference in wine tourism in France and was awarded the Grand Prix d'Or des Trophées de l'oenotourisme in 2019, in the Art & Culture category.
