Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine undergoes aging on fine lees for 6 to 7 months, with a minimum of 3.5 years on the lees in bottle. Post-disgorgement, it rests for at least 6 months before release. The dosage is set at 6 g\/L, resulting in a Brut style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThis Champagne exhibits a bright, clear, pale gold hue with fine, persistent bubbles.
