Domaine des Marnes Blanches

Domaine des Marnes Blanches' greatest asset isn't necessarily the chalky limestone and fossil-rich soils on which they grow their grapes — rather, it's the passionate and talented winemakers/owners, husband-and-wife team Pauline and Géraud Fromont.

Description

Domaine des Marnes Blanches Cremant Du Jura NV

100% Chardonnay from Cotes du Jura, France. From a single parcel of 55-60 year old vines.

Lush orchard fruit, salinity, brioche bread

Partially fermented in stainless steel before aging over lees for 24 months in barriques, followed by bottle ageing

Complex & Classic Sparklings

From buttery brioche to baked apple and toast, this style encapsulates vintage Champagnes and other aged sparkling wines from around the world

Methode Champenoise

The key element of the traditional method is secondary fermentation in the bottle, often achieved by adding a liqueur de tirage to the base wine. The end result is a soft, fine bubly mouthfeel
