Crémant de Loire

France
Loire
2020

90% Chardonnay/10% Menu Pineau. Cazin dedicates 1 hectare of mainly Chardonnay, with a bit of co-planted Menu Pineau, to a tiny production of Crémant de Loire. These 30-year-old vines are planted on siliceous clay soils and farmed sustainably. The bunches are harvested by hand and pressed directly. The wine is aged on its lees for 6 months before bottling with a liqueur de tirage. After secondary fermentation in bottle and a period of aging, the wine is disgorged by hand and does not receive a dosage. The wine is not vintage-labelled but is always a single vintage.
