Description
Chardonnay is one of the noblest grape varieties known. Reliable and consistent in the vineyard, it becomes a perfect expression of terroir in the cellar. This is why our traditional-method sparkling wine is Chardonnay-based, undergoes bottle fermentation for 30–36 months, and represents the perfect metamorphosis of terroir into fine bubbles.
Golden straw-yellow in color.
This wine is distinguished by a light, sweet aromatic note. Hints of cinnamon, pink pepper, and nutmeg blend harmoniously with fruity notes such as dried apricot.
On the palate it is savory and pleasant, balanced by excellent softness, showing good body and persistence.
Vinification and Aging
Strictly hand-harvested, the grapes brought to the winery are pressed whole to obtain the must (cuvée) which is fermented at a controlled temperature. The resulting wine is left to age on the lees in stainless steel tanks for about three months, and is then bottled for secondary fermentation. It remains in the bottle until disgorgement, after which it undergoes further aging for at least 4 months.
