Terroir: Cuvée Longchamps, the name of one of our parcels, comes from our Cerdon vines planted by Guy Dubreuil in the 1990s and then extended by Pierre Dubreuil in 2007. This parcel is located on clay-limestone soils with slopes ranging from 20% to 40%.
Vinification: This is our lowest sugar cuvée at < 25g/litre. It is the result of meticulous selection work on both the vines and the grapes. Vinified according to the ancestral method, fermentation takes place in vats at low temperature to preserve all the quality potential of the terroir. Fermentation is stopped in the vat and the wine begins to bubble gently, continuing for many months in the bottle. This vinification allows us to make a wine that is drier than our other Cerdon cuvées, with 9.5% alcohol.
Tasting notes : Very beautiful pink colour, the attack is frank and elegant with very fine bubbles; the tasting continues with a good length in the mouth and subtle aromas. Significantly less sweet than the usual Cerdon, it will delight demanding connoisseurs.
Serving suggestions: Serve chilled as an aperitif with gougères with Comté cheese, for example.
