WINE MAKING PROCESS
Mont Thibé Brut is produced using the traditional Champagne method. The grapes are vinified in stainless steel vats, and the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation. This process aims to preserve the freshness and varietal character of the Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier grapes, while the secondary fermentation in the bottle creates the characteristic effervescence. The estate's commitment to sustainable viticulture is evident in their HVE certification and their farming practices, which exclude insecticides and herbicides.
