WINE MAKING PROCESS
Beaumont des Crayères Grande Réserve Brut is produced using traditional Champagne methods with a focus on specific techniques. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks, with controlled temperatures to maintain freshness. A significant aspect of its production is the extended aging process, with a minimum of three years spent on lees. This extended contact with the yeast sediment contributes to the wine's complexity and texture. The producer also marks all their wines with the disgorgement date, providing transparency to consumers. The cooperative's approach highlights a collaborative effort among growers to produce wines that embody elegance and authenticity.
