WINE MAKING PROCESS
Collet Blanc de Blancs Brut is produced using the traditional Méthode Champenoise. The primary fermentation converts grape sugars into alcohol. Some cuvées may involve fermentation in wood, contributing to complexity. The wine is then aged for a minimum of five years on its lees in the producer's limestone cellars, a process that develops its texture and aromatic profile. Following disgorgement, a dosage of liqueur d'expédition is added to achieve the Brut sweetness level.
