In Champagne, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of clay and limestone. Without question, the Grande Réserve Brut 1.5 l Magnum is also determined by the climate and viticultural style of Champagne. This French can literally be described as an Old World wine, which presents itself exceptionally distinguished and complex. The maturity of the vintage for this wine of Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir is influenced to a very high degree by the climate of the growing region. In Champagne, the grapes thrive in a rather cool climate, which is reflected, among other things, in particularly long and uniform grapes and a rather moderate must weight. Following the harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the winery. Here they are selected and gently pressed. The fermentation of the base wines follows. After the assemblage of the champagne follows further aging based on the Méthode Traditionelle. It follows a bottle storage for 6 months.
