Through the hard work of Jo Pithon, its emblematic owner, the Domaine Pithon-Paillé has created a place of choice among the reference domains in Anjou. Its credo? Terroir. Each wine, although made from the same grape variety, expresses itself differently. In these wines, it is the combination of the soils and the climate that works and everything is done to maintain the spirit of sharing. Organic wines.
Presentation
Winemaking
Our grapes are pressed and then cold temperature settled. The fermentation takes place with natural yeasts in Burgundy barrels. The particu-larity of this sparkling wine resides in its method of drawing. It consists in using the must of the vintage year to accomplish the drawing of the base wine of the previous vintage. The base wine stays 12 mon-ths in barrels of 2-3 wines and one year on slats. Zero dosage.
