- This delicious sparkling wine offers an abundance of fine, delicate bubbles. It displays great finesse, elegance, and complexity with flavors of citrus fruits and apple through to a fresh, crisp finish.
This sparkling wine is made using the classic ‘méthode traditionnelle’, the same method used in champagne. Only the finest and ripest grapes were selected, delicately pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks to retain the purity of the fruit. The ‘liqueur de tirage’ of sugar and yeast was added before the wine was bottled, and it underwent secondary fermentation, creating delicate and fine bubbles characterised by méthode traditionnelle sparkling wines. The wines underwent ‘remuage’, the process by which the bottles are twisted to compact and later facilitate sediment removal. The wine was kept on its fine lees for eight to 10 months before disgorging. The bottles were topped with the ‘liqueur de dosage’, resulting in a residual sugar of 11 grams per litre.
This delicious sparkling wine offers an abundance of fine, delicate bubbles. It displays great finesse, elegance, and complexity, with citrus fruits and apple flavours that continue to a fresh, crisp finish.

Winery | This sparkling wine is produced from carefully selected Chardonnay grapes from vineyards in the Loire Valley and the Languedoc regions. The climate in the Loire is cooler, and continental and produces fruit with naturally occurring crisp, fresh acidity. The grapes from the Languedoc benefit from the warm Mediterranean climate, resulting in a richer style of fruit, which results in harmonious complexity when blended. Conventional viticulture is adopted at Bertrand de Monceny. The soils, vines, and grapes are nurtured throughout the vine growing and harvesting processes to preserve the finesse, quality, and flavours that characterize this Chardonnay Brut. |
