Vinification of the Grand Cru Blanc de Pinot Noir from Champagne Mailly

The vinification of the Grand Cru Blanc de Pinot Noir begins in the vineyard with the meticulous selection of grapes. These come from the best locations in Champagne, where the vines thrive in limestone soils. The grapes are hand-harvested to ensure quality at every stage.
