In a few words ...
The grapes are pressed and then cold settled. Fermentation takes place in Burgundy barrels, using indigenous yeasts. The particularity of this crémant lies in its tirage method. The base wine of the previous vintage is drawn off using must from the current year. The base wine spends 12 months in 2-3 wine barrels and 1 year on laths. Zero dosage at bottling.
"The whites reflect the high maturity of the plump Chenin grape. They have been given a patina by their time in wood, like the Brut de Chenin, straightforward and charming", "to be uncorked within the year".

Slightly oxidized nose of peach and apple. Good acidity and salinity. Good length on the palate. A wonderful discovery!

A very nice 100% chenin monocépage. A short period in barrel gives it a certain complexity. Drink within the year
