Winemaking First sorting is done manually in the vineyard, then the grapes are harvested by machine and sorted a second time at the grapes receivable at winery. The temperature during harvest time is of prime concern. Vinification: Bunches are gently pressed in a pneumatic press below 1.6 bar. Fermentation: Then by gravity the fermentation takes place in thermoregulated stainless-steel tank. Maturation: On fine lies in stainless tank for about 6 months after the bottling. The wine is then aged sur latte for 16 to 24 months. This takes place in the underground cellar where the natural conditions are ideal to develop fine bubbles. 6 to 8 g/L of residual sugar.

The Story
Troglodyte is this little bird that likes to nest at the entrance to the cellars. With his chirping, he joyfully enlivens the courtyards of winegrowers' houses. Believe me: it sings with just as much joy in your glasses, thanks to its dashing and fine bubbles!
