Information about the Wine:
"Grand Elevage" ("Long Aging") is a blend of our oldest vineyards of Savagnin in Arbois. They give a really concentrated harvest that alows a long aging of the wines…Rational and sustainable vineyard management. Hand harvested. Spontaneous fermentations .
The whole vinification takes place into oak barrels, most of them are 4 to 7 wines old. 15% of more recent barrels. No new barrel. Aged 18 months on the lees, with regular topping-up of the barrels (no oxydation).
