Apex
Chardonnay et Pinot Noir
This is our sparkling wine made using the traditional method. The name refers to the summit of the vine that we sometimes trim in summer, a word we associate with vertical growth and also with the path of a bubble as it moves up to explode on the surface of a liquid.
Festive, joyous – this sparkling wine is a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Little or no dosage keeps it fresh and digestible; the wine will be part of many shared moments.
Réserve
The patina of time
Very low yields, a selection of old vines, prolonged maturation and bottled aging prior to placing on the market contribute to the emergence of refined and refined wines. The quest for this elusive perfection is at the heart of our business: these exceptional wines confirm our faith in nature and in life. Beyond a success, a reward!
VINTAGE
Harvest on September 12th 2023
Spring 2023 is characterized by frequent precipitation. Unfortunately, where ther is rain, there is mildew pressure, a fungus which has caused some damage to young leaves and future grape clusters.
Luckily, in the beginning of June, the weather changed, and flowering took place in the best of conditions. The vines grew quickly, we wove the branches on the majority of our domaine. A colossal job that prevented the branches from falling without having to shear the apices. We thus limited the stress of the plant, promoted the rooting and maturation of its babies, the grapes.
The season continued with several virulent windstorms, fortunately without damaging the vines.
It’s time for the heat… In August, there was a heatwave, with temperatures reaching 36°C. However, on August 16th a nice and welcoming rain caused temperatures to drop and slowed down the ripening of the grapes. We could, therefore, start the harvest on September 12th with our loyal team of pickers.
Each vintage has its own twists and turns, its unique characteristics, which each time force us to react, understand, and… remain creative.
We were finally able to press healthy grapes, which gave us juices packed with flavour and joyful drinkability.
