Coteaux Champenois – Bouzy Rouge

Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Maturation: Hand-picked from our old vines, the best bunches are first sorted in the vineyard, followed by a second sorting on the sorting table before destemming (without crushing). Cold maceration for 4 days, followed by the start of alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, punching down of the cap and pumping over once a day for 10 days, pressing of the marc cake, malolactic fermentation and ageing in oak barrels for a minimum of 12 months. We adapt the ageing period according to the tasting and the year.
Format: Half-bottle 37.5 cl – Bottle 75cl
