WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Émile Leclère Rosé Brut is produced using traditional Champagne winemaking methods. The primary fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks. To achieve its rosé color and red fruit notes, a small percentage (6-7%) of still red Pinot Noir wine is blended into the cuvée. The wine is then aged for 30 months on its lees before disgorgement and a dosage of 8 g/l.
