BULLES DE ROCHE BT
This zero dosage Brut is a blend of 90% Chenin Blanc, 5% Chardonnay, and 5% Cabernet Franc. All the fruit is drawn from old (50 years average age) vines planted on limestone slopes which were organically farmed. The first fermentation was took place in 3 to 4 year ols oak barrels and was dirven by indigenous yeasts. This sparkler opens with facinating bakery and stone fruit aromas while the palate is all about taught melon fruit overlain with notions of fossils and chalk.
