WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of Chablis Le Beaunois involves long pneumatic pressing of the grapes, followed by static settling of the juice. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in stainless steel vats at controlled temperatures of 18-20°C to maintain fruit integrity, with malolactic fermentation completed by January. The wine then undergoes aging on fine lees for 6 to 8 months, with regular stirring to build body and structure.
