WINE MAKING PROCESS
Pierre Olivier Blanc de Blancs Prestige Brut is produced using the Charmat method, also known as the cuve close or tank method. This technique involves a secondary fermentation that takes place within pressurized tanks, a process that efficiently captures the carbon dioxide to create the wine's effervescence. The grapes used are exclusively Chardonnay, cultivated under organic farming practices. This method is chosen to maintain the wine's fresh and fruity profile, making it a vibrant and approachable sparkling wine.
