Vinification of Champagne Moet Hennessy Chardonnay Pinot Meunier Pinot Noir

The production of Champagne Moet Hennessy Chardonnay Pinot Meunier Pinot Noir begins in the renowned Champagne region of France, known for its chalky soils and cool climate. The carefully selected grapes of the Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir varieties ripen optimally under these conditions and provide the basis for this outstanding sparkling wine.

The harvest is usually done by hand to handle the ripe grapes gently and preserve the quality as well as possible. Vinification then begins with a gentle pressing in which the juice is obtained particularly clear. The subsequent first fermentation takes place in a controlled manner at cool temperatures in order to preserve the fruity aromas as well as possible.

In the blending phase, the varietal cuvée is put together to achieve the characteristic taste. The cellar master pays particular attention to the balance between freshness, fruit and brioche aromas. In the traditional bottle fermentation process, the so-called Méthode Champenoise, the second fermentation takes place in the bottle. This gives the wine its fine perlage and the complexity typical of Champagne.

The maturation lasts several months, during which the Champagne rests on the lees to develop its texture and its subtle brioche note. After the maturation phase, the wine is disgorged and adjusted to brut with the “dosage”. This guarantees a refreshing yet elegant character.
