WINE MAKING PROCESS
Jeanmaire Brut is produced using the traditional method, also known as Méthode Champenoise, which involves a secondary fermentation taking place directly in the bottle. This process is fundamental to creating the wine's effervescence. Following this, the wine undergoes aging on its lees for a minimum of one year, a step that contributes to its complexity and texture. After disgorgement, it is aged for at least three months. The dosage, or the amount of sugar added before final corking, is light, contributing to the wine's overall freshness.
