WINEMAKING : 

An extended period of aging on the fine lies after alcoholic fermentation, providing body and smoothness. The micro-oxygenation technique is used with oak barrels from 220L to 600L to give the wine a lovely patina, developing a subtle combination of complex but delicate aromas. The initial intensity and freshness of the terroir is preserved by there being no malolactic fermentation process. A minimum 33-month aging period, during which bottles are horizontally stacked, makes for a rich aroma and a lovely lingering taste.
This Champagne with no added sweetness from dosage, will delight lovers of lively wines, who will find it to be the epitome of wine in its natural state.
