Production of Les Vignes de Bisseuil Egly-Ouriet Champagne

The Les Vignes de Bisseuil cuvée is a single-vineyard wine sourced from the 1er Cru terroir of Bisseuil. It primarily consists of 70% Chardonnay, complemented by 15% Pinot Noir and 15% Pinot Meunier. This blend represents a subtle departure from the estate's traditional focus on Pinot Noir.

The wine undergoes vinification in oak barrels, featuring 10% new oak, which adds complexity and a silky texture. After aging on fine lees for four years in the estate's cellars, this champagne is disgorged without fining or filtration to maintain its purity. With a minimal dosage of just 1 g/L, it achieves a perfect balance between liveliness and roundness.
