| Technical Details | Shallow Coquard presses from Champagne were used to press the grapes and the juice was then put into stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation occurred in all the wines. 30% reserve wines were blended in, which were on average four years old. The wine was aged on its lees for 36 months before disgorgement and dosage occurred, using the traditional method. Following disgorgement, the sparkling wines were aged for a further 6 months in bottle before release. The blend in this MV wine is 55 – 65% Chardonnay, 30 o 40% Pinot Noir and 5- 15% Pinot Meunier |
