    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Chandon de Briailles is a meticulously crafted artisanal process. The hand-harvested grapes are rigorously sorted before being destemmed. Fermentation takes place in open vats, allowing for a gentle extraction of tannins. The wine is then aged in oak barrels, some of which are new, for 12 to 15 months. This aging process imparts subtle woody nuances while preserving the fruit's expression. Bottling without filtration ensures that the wine retains all its purity and aromatic richness.
