Brut Sélection

From the Vine to the Winery

Grapes coming from our vines transmit the carefully-controlled culture of the mature slopes of the Marne Valley.
Pressing and racking of the Must are carried out in the traditional way.
Vinification is in temperature-regulated, stainless-steel tanks.
The alcoholic fermentation is carried out at low temperature (15° C) which conserves all of the aromatic finesse.

From the Bottle to the Glass

The tint is gently maintained.
The aromas are rich and ripe with scents of biscuits, notes of crystallised fruits and of shortcrust pastry.
