Prêt en Bulles

This cuvée with fine bubbles, supple and fruity, is made only from Chardonnay using the traditional Champenoise method. To ensure a low alcohol content, we harvest the grapes early. The 1st fermentation takes place in vats at low temperature to preserve the natural aromas. The 2nd fermentation takes place in closed bottles. After several months in the cellar, the dégorgement and the final cork stopper are made.
