WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of Maison Jean Loron Bourgogne Chardonnay 2021 involves the careful selection of Chardonnay grapes from the Burgundy region. Following harvest, the grapes undergo fermentation, a process where sugars are converted to alcohol. Depending on the winemaker's approach, this fermentation may occur in stainless steel tanks or oak barrels. Post-fermentation, the wine may be aged, potentially in oak, to develop its complexity and texture before bottling.
