Winemaking
The bunches are pressed whole with zero skin contact which gives very clear and pure juice. Conventional cold fermentation in steel tank optimises fruitiness and palate purity whilst a break from traditional practice is implemented thereafter as the blend is assembled unfiltered and the tirage bottling for secondary fermentation takes place as the temperature rises in early spring to retain grape ester fragrance. Over four months special yeasts go to work on the remaining sugars in the wine to create the magic of sparkling wine and the lively effervescence and by mid summer fermentation is complete at which point each bottle is riddled and disgorged to rid the wine of its sediment and immediately ready to drink.
Tasting Note
An aromatic and floral nose full of apple and pear fruit. Clean, mineral character on the palate, with a succulent citrus finish.
