Vineyard |
Vineyards in Theizé and Liergues, in the Pierres Dorées (golden stones) area. West to Northwest exposure. In this condition, the Chardonnay has a slow maturation to give good vivacity to our Crémant. Vines of over 20 years old using sustainable practices. Soils of clay and limestone. |
Vinification |
Harvesting by hand in small crates. After a strict selection of the pressed juice, the wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks with regulated temperature. Secondary fermentation in bottle. |
Pairing |
Best enjoyed in its youth, but throughout the year. Served for an aperitif, this wine will pleasantly excite your palate. |
The story of the Vignerons de Bel Air began in 1929 at the dawn of the Great Depression, when a handful of winemakers in Beaujolais joined forces to resist the economic storm. Now, with 250 members growing within all ten cru appellations, the Bel Air winery holds firm to the tough and dynamic core it was founded upon. We bring you the "clochet" or clocktower series of crus, with the steeple of each of the cru village churches featured on the label. Each of these wines offer the characteristics that the region is known for, beautiful fruit expression, finesse, balance and complexity of terroir.
