This Crémant is a blend of 90% Chenin Blanc and 10% Pineau d'Aunis; these grapes are pressed slowly and gently in a pneumatic press, then fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. Second fermentation occurs in bottle, so this wine is made in the traditional or Champange method, and this ferment is kickstarted with grape must. Finally, the wine is finished with no added dosage—so it's quite dry. This is a raw and vinous Crémant with elegant bubbles, a superior analogue to Champagne, fantastic with fish crudo and lighter styles of soups.
