PAST WINES

FOUDRE CHARDONNAY

This cuvée is made exclusively from Chardonnay grown in the towns of Festigny and Le Breuil. The 31-year-old vines sit in the Marne’s typical silty clay-limestone soils. After a gentle pressing the juice is fermented in stainless steel. The low pH acidity and cool temperatures help prevent malolactic conversion. The wine is then racked into oak tun for a year before blending the individual plots and bottling. The wine will then typically spend 60 months on lees before being disgorged.
