Vinification of Green Veltliner Brut from Schlumberger Sparkling Winery

The production of this sparkling wine begins with the careful selection of grapes. The Green Veltliner vines thrive preferentially on calcareous soils, which lend them their characteristic spiciness. The grapes are hand-harvested at the end of September to ensure optimal ripeness and freshness. The selective harvest prevents excessive sugar entry and secures lively acidity.

After harvest, gentle pressing ensures a clear must quality. The first fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve the fruity and spicy aromas. Subsequently, the traditional bottle fermentation, known as Méthode traditionnelle, is initiated, responsible for the fine perlage and complex flavor. The wine matures on the lees for at least 18 months, giving the sparkling wine a distinctive creaminess and depth.

The final disgorging carefully removes the yeast deposit before the wine is classified as Brut with a delicate dosage. This dosage emphasizes freshness without overwhelming the natural liveliness. The result is an elegant, sleek sparkling wine with persistent pressure and brilliant clarity that bears the refined signature of Schlumberger Sparkling Winery.
