Vinification of Pommery Apanage Blanc de Blancs from Champagne Pommery The Pommery Apanage Blanc de Blancs from Champagne Pommery is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes cultivated on limestone-rich soils in Champagne. The vineyards are ideally located to provide optimal sunlight exposure and good ventilation for the grapes. The vines are managed according to sustainable principles to ensure grape quality and preserve the natural character of the Chardonnay variety. The harvest is done by hand, with only fully ripe grapes selected for pressing. After meticulous handpicking, the grapes are immediately gently pressed to extract the noble grape must. The alcoholic fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks, preserving the freshness of the fruit aromas. The aromatic fermentation is crucial for developing complex scent notes and achieving an impressive balance between fruit and mineral notes. Following fermentation, a second fermentation occurs in the bottle, allowing the wine to develop its fine perlage. The bottles are stored on their lees for several months, which enhances the creaminess and complexity of the wine. Disgorging and dosage determination are precisely coordinated, contributing to a harmony between fruit, acidity, and creaminess. The final product is a multifaceted, lively Champagne that impresses with its elegant structure and pure bouquet.
