"Ferdinand" is a brut nature pétillant naturel based on the Taminette grape, a hybrid that comes from Gewürztraminer. The grapes are hand harvested then destemmed and allowed to macerate on the skins for two days before being gently pressed. The fermenting wine is bottled when roughly 1° Brix remains, making this wine playful yet aromatic and persistent. The wine remains on the lees for 9 months before being disgorged with no dosage.
