Techniques used
Controlled fermentation in stainless steel vats. Indigenous yeasts. The fermentation is controlled by successive racking. Bottle conditioning takes place using selected yeasts. "Methode Traditionnelle": The lees break down and are re-absorbed by autolysis, which gives the cider structure and roundness. The deposit remaining in the bottle is removed by disgorging. The cider made in this way is clear and without deposit. Bottled in the spring. Fermentation on the lees takes place for at least 12 months before disgorging.
Density (O.G.): 1052 after pressing, equivalent to 115 g of sugar per litre. 1001 after second fermentation.
