Tuffeau slope wines are more structured and tannic with leather, cocoa, roasted and spice notes, long ageing. Purple robe, finesse and well-integrated acidity, signature Loire Cabernet Franc elegance, neighbour to Chinon.

The word of the wine: Maturing (champagne)
After riddling, the bottles are stored on "point", upside down, with the neck of one bottle in the bottom of the other. The duration of this maturation is very important: in contact with the dead yeasts, the wine takes on subtle aromas and gains in roundness and fatness. A brut without year must remain at least 15 months in the cellar after bottling, a vintage 36 months.
