Vinification of the Sparkling Brut by Schlumberger Sparkling Wine Cellar The grapes for the Sparkling Brut by Schlumberger Sparkling Wine Cellar come from select vineyards with optimal sunlight exposure and cool climate, providing ideal conditions for the development of freshness and acidity. Hand-harvesting is carefully performed to ensure gentle handling of the berries and to preserve the full aromatic spectrum. The production follows the traditional method of bottle fermentation, known as Méthode Traditionnelle. It involves a gentle second fermentation in the bottle, taking place in several steps, which imparts the wine's fine perlage and complex structure. After the primary fermentation and disgorging preparation, the base wine blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Noir grapes is harmoniously combined into a cuvée. The wine is matured in cool cellars where bottles rest on the lees for at least 24 months. This extended maturation is crucial for developing fine yeast aromas such as brioche, toast, and almonds. The subsequent riddling process removes the lees from the wine and prepares it for disgorging. A delicate dosage ensures the final balance between fruit and freshness. In summary: Selection and hand-harvesting of grapes from cool top sites Traditional bottle fermentation with a second fermentation in the bottle Extended aging on the lees for complexity and perlage Riddling and dosage for fine tuning Food Pairings for the Sparkling Brut by Schlumberger Sparkling Wine Cellar The Sparkling Brut by Schlumberger Sparkling Wine Cellar impresses with its versatility and is excellently suited as an aperitif but also as an accompaniment to a variety of dishes.
