🍇THE CHAMPAGNE MANDOIS VINIFICATION 🍇
The #wines stored in #wood as well as those in #vat have been racked and the #blends created.
The result is stunning; the wines are radiant and rich with lingering flavours.
The #bottling planned for the end of April has been postponed to the end of June as a precautionary measure.
The #barrels, #demi-muids (600 litre barrels) and #foudres containing the reserve wines for the next blends are full once more. These barrels do, of course, have to be topped up regularly and in Champagne this topping up operation is known as “ouillage”.
Have a great week end everyone !
