2021 Blanc de Blanc
Tasting Notes
Our 2021 Blanc De Blanc is a Brut style Mèthode Champenoise sparkling wine made from 100% Chardonnay grapes. Displaying delicate fruit aromatics of green apple, citrus and honeydew melon, this wine shows beautiful minerality followed by a crisp off-dry finish and pleasant effervescence.Winemaker Notes
We fermented this wine cold and slow in stainless steel, to keep it aromatic, lively and fresh. After the primary fermentation, the wine is bottled with a tirage (mixture of sugar and yeast). The yeast acts on the sugars and results in carbon dioxide being trapped in the bottle. The wine is then aged on yeast for 36 months, before the final process of disgorging, adding the dosage and the traditional cork with wire cage is added. The final Brut level dosage balances the acidity beautifully. This refreshing wine is done in the classic Mèthode Champenoise style.Wine Profile
