Harvest

Vinification

The Pinot Noir grapes are fermented on the skins for a few hours, to give the cuvée its characteristic pink hue. The Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc are given a traditional white-wine vinification, with the clusters pressed in a pneumatic press and the first and second fractions kept separate. Fermentation and a maturation of some seven months take place partly in temperature-controlled stainless steel (80%) and partly in small oak barrels (20%), where the malolactic fermentation takes place

Maturation, ageing

The tiered-up bottles remain in our 17th-century cellars for at least 24 months before riddling. The sediment is then removed and they are given the Brut-style liqueur d’expedition, then corked and wired. The wine then rests in the bottle at least two more months before release
