Our Mousseux is produced from our 24 year old Chenin Blanc vines in the traditional method with fermentation occurring in the bottle. It is a wine inspired by the Loire Valley, with pure, energetic flavours and a beautifully creamy texture. Leading up to harvest the canopy of our cane-pruned Chenin Blanc vines was deliberately left untouched to ensure the fruit was shaded, which helps the grapes to retain their natural acidity. The grapes were carefully handpicked at low Baumés and were immediately crushed and pressed. After three months of lees contact the dry base wine was bottled and inoculated for its secondary fermentation, which took place in each individual bottle over the course of two years. The residual sugar after dosage is minimal, it thus maintains a refreshing aroma of green apple and elderflower. Citrus blossom and brioche notes carry this elegant and refreshing sparkling wine with its delicate fine bead and its soft ‘mousse’ like texture through to a delicious finish.
