Produced with grapes harvested from selected parcels on the hillside that faces the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil sur Oger, this wine expresses the character of an unexpectedly outstanding vintage. Started with unfavorable climate during spring and the first half of summer, the trend completely changed during August, bringing the grapes to perfect maturation with warm days and preserving good acidity during fresh nights. The primary fermentation and vinification are carried out in steel barrels at controlled temperatures that vary between 18-20 °C. The malolactic fermentation is prevented, then follows the secondary bottle fermentation phase aging on the lees for no less than 52 months. There is no liqueur d’expédition added, so the dosage remains under 1g/l.
