Champagne Gimonnet Cuis 1.5L (1500ml)

This non vintage Champagne is actually always a blend of 5 vintages.  The grapes are hand harvested and pressed in phases.  The juice cold settles and fermentation happens in temperature controlled tanks followed by a malolactic fermentation.  The wine then rests for 6-8 months in tank.  The “reserve wine” (wine that is held from prior vintages, which is added to the most recent vintage before bottling and second fermentation) is kept in bottles, which is rare. More commonly, reserve wine is kept in tanks.  The wine is cold stabilized and clay filtered before bottling and tirage.  The wine then rests in bottle for 30 months on the lees and undergoes the second fermentation.  After disgorging, the wine is topped up and has a dosage of 6 g/L of sugar.
