PRODUCTION METHOD

The grapes are transported by conveyor belt to a pneumatic press which crushes them (maximum pressure 1.4 atm/bar), in preparation for the production of the cuvée the following spring. A dose of liqueur de tirage is added (24 g/l of sugar). A high internal pressure is created within the bottle that produces an elegant, fine and persistent perlage. After the dégorgement, the bottle is sealed with a cork, wire capsule and foil and is aged for 3 months before its release.

• • Recommended serving temperature 8-10 °C
  • Serving suggestions superb as an aperitif but equally delicious during elaborate meals with sauces and stocks or lighter meals of white fish and meat
