WINE MAKING PROCESS
Chablis Dame Nature 2017 is produced using 100% Chardonnay grapes. The grapes are hand-harvested, a technique that ensures careful selection. Fermentation is typically carried out in stainless steel tanks, a method chosen to maintain the wine's freshness and primary fruit characteristics. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging for approximately 6 to 9 months on its fine lees, primarily in stainless steel. This 'sur lie' aging contributes to the wine's texture and complexity. The wine is certified organic, reflecting a commitment to sustainable and natural winemaking practices.
