Description

If variety is the spice of life, then Chandon Brut is a perfectly seasoned little sparkling. A mix of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier grapes are all carefully selected from cool climate spots across Victoria.
Harvest early February to late March. Grapes are pressed to juice. 2. The juice is inoculated with cultured yeast. Primary fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks with a few select parcels fermented in oak vessels for greater complexity. 3. In May, assemblage occurs which involves blending a combination of new base wines with reserve wines from previous years. 4. The second fermentation occurs in the bottle and the ageing process beings. The wine will spend a minimum of 12 months on yeast lees. 5. Individual bottles are then riddled and disgorged. A small amount of dosage liqueur is added. After 3 months bottle age the wine is ready!
