WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Bott Frères Crémant Blanc de Noirs is produced using the traditional method for AOC Crémant d'Alsace. Grapes are harvested manually. Primary fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. Following this, the wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle, and is then aged 'sur latte' (on lees) for 24 months. The winery practices 'viticulture raisonnée', focusing on sustainable methods with reduced treatments and attention to biodiversity.
