Product Description:
The 1682 Brut Chardonnay has a bright lemon color and a delicate perlage in the glass. It exudes freshness and pure fruit, displaying lively notes of Granny Smith apple, white blossoms, candied lemon peel, and white peach. On the palate, it is vibrant and shows finesse and complexity with crisp acidity and a fine salinity. Aromas of lemon, honey nectarine, toasted croissant, pistachio, and dried green herbs unfold. It has a long, yet refreshing finish. This Méthode Cap Classique is the epitome of elegance for all occasions.

Vinifikation The Brut 1682 Chardonnay is a Blanc de Blanc and is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes. It is produced using the traditional French method and is therefore called Méthode Cap Classique. The Chardonnay grapes were hand-picked at low sugar levels of 17 - 19° Oechsle and whole-bunch pressed. The extracted juice is low in phenolics, rich in natural acidity, and relatively varietal-neutral. This juice ferments with a strong strain of yeast to become the base wine of the MCC. Once the base wine is stabilized, it undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle. During this secondary fermentation, the yeast produces CO2, which forms the bubbles or mousse of the MCC. After fermentation, the sparkling wine was aged on its lees for at least 12 months, up to 18 months.
