WINE MAKING PROCESS
This Champagne is produced using the traditional Méthode Champenoise. As a 'Blanc de Noirs,' it is made exclusively from black grape varieties, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The process involves primary fermentation, followed by a secondary fermentation in the bottle to create effervescence. Blending with reserve wines from previous vintages is a common practice to ensure consistency and add depth to the final non-vintage product.
