WINE MAKING PROCESS
Crafted using the traditional method, this Champagne is a blend of approximately 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier, and 20% Chardonnay. The blend incorporates up to 20% of reserve wines to ensure consistency of style. After secondary fermentation in the bottle, the wine is aged on its lees for approximately three years in the house's historic chalk cellars, far exceeding the legal minimum requirement, before receiving a moderate dosage.
