WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Beaumont des Crayères Fleur Blanche Blanc de Blancs Brut 2019 is produced using the traditional Champagne method, with 100% Chardonnay grapes. Following primary fermentation, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, a process crucial for its effervescence. A significant aspect of its production is the extended aging on its lees, which lasts for more than five years. This extended maturation period is a key technique employed by the producer to develop complexity and depth in their vintage Champagnes. Each bottle is marked with a unique disgorgement date. The producer adheres to ISO 22000 standards and utilizes winemaking practices that are free from animal additives.
