Presentation
Presentation
A classic sparkling vouvray produced by the traditional method of secondary fermentation in the bottle.
Terroir
The clay-limestone vineyard is on average 30 years old and is partly renewed every year.
In the vineyard
The soil is worked at the foot of the vines and grassed in the middle of the row.
Winemaking
Gentle pressing, selection of the juices and separated vinification at 14°C with natural yeasts in stainless steel tanks. No adding sulfites before the racking, use of Bioprotections, to protect the juices. The second fermentation in bottle is made from natural residual sugar with selected yeasts. To obtain a great fineness of bubbles, the bottles are ageing 18 months at the minimum in our cellar before release.
