WINE MAKING PROCESS
The André Jacquart Vertus Experiance Extra Brut Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs is produced using 100% Chardonnay grapes. Sixty percent of the grapes are vinified in stainless steel tanks, while the remaining forty percent, sourced from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, are fermented in older Burgundy oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation is not performed. The wine undergoes aging for seven to eight months in oak barrels and vats, followed by bottle fermentation and a minimum of four years of aging in the cellars. The dosage is set at an Extra Brut level of 3-4 g/L.
