The wine region of Colorado

American Far West vineyard at extreme altitude (1,200-2,000 m), among the highest in North America. A dry continental climate with strong thermal swings signing tension and freshness. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon reds with signature notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, cedar and menthol, tight tannins. Round, fruity Merlot (plum, cocoa), peppery Cabernet Franc.

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.
