Bertrand de Monceny Blanc de Blancs Methode Traditionnelle Brut NV

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.
