This Crémant d’Alsace AOC meets the very strict production conditions. The grapes are picked and carefully placed in the press in the respect of the rules identical to the “Méthode Champenoise”The grape is picked whole.
After the traditional fermentation “Vin de Base” in tanks, it is in the bottle itself that
the second fermentation “Prise de mousse” takes place in cool cellars. This natural
phenomenon requires careful and patient attention to each bottle. After the two years ageing period “Sur lattes” the bottles are rotated during 4 days, gradually from the horizontal to the vertical position, in order to the yeast deposit to accumulate in the neck of the bottle.
At the time of “dégorgement”, the neck of the bottle is frozen and, enclosed in ice,
the sediment is ejected by natural pressure and the bottle is corked and wired.
