Champagne Brut Tradition L’Esprit du Temps Box da 6 bottiglie
The name "Esprit du temps" (spirit of the times) refers to the use of wines from previous vintages stored in the cellar, which give uniformity to the taste year after year. This is Bonnaire's flagship Champagne, the non-vintage brut, or the cuvée at the base of the entire production. It is made almost entirely with grapes that come from the Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards of the Côte des Blancs, in particular from Cramant and Bergères-les-Vertus. The Chardonnay in particular has the fresh and mineral character typical of the area.
The base wines ferment in steel vats at a controlled temperature and carry out the malolactic fermentation. Both wines from the current year and wines from previous vintages stored in the cellar are used in the cuvée. The aging on the lees in the bottle lasts for over 30 months. It is dosed with 7 g / l of sugar.
