Les Ttes Au Bois Dormant NV

Description

Les Têtes Au Bois Dormant is a traditional method sparkling wine from the Loire Valley, crafted from Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay. The grapes come from 25-year-old vines planted to clay and limestone soils from Château de Rigny-Ussé. The whole vineyard is farmed and certified organic, with all the fruit hand-harvested with indigenous yeast fermentation. The wine undergoes second fermentation in bottle following the méthode traditionnelle, with low SO2 at bottling. The vineyard sits in the unspoiled landscape surrounding Château de Rigny-Ussé, named after Charles Perrault’s “Sleeping Beauty in the Woods” fairy tale.
