Product details
The grapes are completely destemmed and pressed, making use only of the run-off must. This is followed by cold static decanting for 24 hours, after which the must is separated from the lees. Fermentation begins at a controlled temperature of 14ºC. After the end of alcoholic fermentation, the wine is aged on the fine lees for 2 months. The method used to prepare the sparkling wine is the Classic Method, with the second fermentation in the bottle. After preparing the base wine, tirage liqueur is added and then bottling takes place. Sparkling wine is then fermented at 12ºC in the cellar. This is followed by ageing, which takes as long as necessary to reach the desired level of quality. Before being commercialised, the wine is racked and disgorged, and the process ends with the addition of the expedition liqueur selected for each vintage.
