Dosage

Extra Brut
What to Expect

Appearance: Clear, yellow with gold glints.
Nose: Refined and complex fruit aromas with white (pear) and yellow (peach) fruit, rhubarb, floral (acacia, honeysuckle), a touch of spice (thyme, pepper) and a refreshing hint of citrus (grapefruit and lemon).
Palate: Full, delicious, lively and balanced with a long and saline finish.
Cellaring: Pour this wine within 3 years to enjoy its youthful qualities or wait up to 10 years for a more complex experience.

Food Pairings

Service: Pour at 8-10°C and leave it to breathe for 5 minutes in the glass, pair with mackerel rillettes with Sichuan pepper, seafood or Spanish charcuterie.

Technical Notes

Vinification: Slow pneumatic pressing, elimination of the “taille” must, static settling, addition of basic yeasts, natural malolactic fermentation, slight sulphiting, light filtration after cold stabilisation.

Ageing: At least 36 months on lees, disgorging with low dosage at 5 g/l to preserve the purity of the wine.
