MÉTHODE TRADITIONNELLE
Grapes are harvested at night to keep the fruit cool and preserve freshness. Harvest begins in early August to retain acidity and capture Chandon’s signature vibrancy.
State-of-the-art presses lower pressing times, limiting the juice’s contact with the grape skins to avoid bitterness. Primary fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks
Assemblage occurs in the winter, at the end of the fermentation process, which involves blending of multiple vintages of base wines for a complex, consistent style .
The second fermentation then occurs in the bottle and the ageing process begins, during which this wine spent 36 months on the yeast lees.
Bottles are then riddled and disgorged. A small amount of dosage liqueur is added, and a cork seals the bottle. After a minimum of 6 months bottle age the wine is ready!
