Production:
The de-stemmed grapes undergo cold soak for several hours in order to maximize the primary aromas. One part of the must is then fermented in stainless steel tanks at a very low temperature between 12-14 ºC The other part undergoes 1st fermentation in new French & Baltic oak barrels. The coupage wine obtained undergoes 2nd fermentation in the bottle according to the traditional “Méthode Champenoise”.
