Vinification
Special cuvée from the Baron Albert house. The champagne consists of basic wine and reserve wine from the previous year. The wines do not undergo malolactic fermentation. A very small percentage receives a short wood bearing for the second fermentation in the bottle, giving more body, but people mainly work with stainless steel cuves. Depending on the harvest, the champagne stays on for 3 to 4 years.
