WINE MAKING PROCESS
François Martenot Crémant de Bourgogne Rosé Brut 2019 is produced using the traditional method, also known as Méthode Traditionnelle. This involves a first fermentation of the base wine, followed by a second fermentation directly in the bottle to create the effervescence. The wine then undergoes aging on its lees for a minimum period, which contributes to its texture and aromatic complexity. The grapes, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, are handled with care from harvest through pressing to fermentation.
