Notes on the Wine
The "Méthode Ancestrale" is a fermentation technique that makes it possible to obtain a sparkling wine without the adjunction of any yeast nor sugar. The fermentation process is natural, and uses only the yeasts and sugars contained in the grapes. A first phase happens in thermo-regulated tanks, where the fermentation process starts. After a light filtration, the wine is bottled, and fermentation process continues, producing the bubbles and the fine foam.
