WINE MAKING PROCESS
Bernard Tornay La Fosse d'Arzilliers is produced using the traditional method, also known as the 'méthode champenoise'. This involves a first fermentation in tanks, followed by a second fermentation in the bottle where the wine develops its characteristic effervescence and develops complexity through aging on lees. The exclusive use of Pinot Noir grapes is a defining aspect of its production, contributing to its structural profile. Specific details regarding fermentation vessels, temperatures, yeast types, and aging durations are not provided, but the process is consistent with the standards for Champagne production.
