2015 was a temperate and dry year with excellent fruit yield. Berry size was near perfect, and the fruit expressed a high natural acidity requiring additional moderate hang time. The wines from this vintage exhibit brilliant structure and poise and the classic characteristics of a balanced season.

Made using the traditional sparkling winemaking method combined with fastidious modern viticultural techniques, this wine is made with hand-picked and gently pressed fruit, with only the highest-quality juice selected for fermentation. Ten percent fermentation in new French oak barriques, followed by 100 percent malolactic fermentation, further builds complexity and character into the wine. The blended wine was matured for seven years in tirage, ensuring an unrivalled depth and complexity.
