Tasting Note
The nose opens with notes of rice pudding, vanilla, apricot liqueur and turmeric. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and lively, with fine bubbles and a constant evolution as it warms. Finishes finely tannic and oxidative. A champagne with an assertive style for discerning connoisseurs.
Winemaking Winery
A blend of 90% Pinot Noir “Les Vignes du Feuilly” parcel in Avenay Val d’Or and 10% Chardonnay “Les Sept Arpents” parcel in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ. Vinified in metal vats (75%) and oak barrels (25%). Vinification without sulphur, a careful selection of clear wines and the absence of liqueur result in a wine that is totally assertive, for which precision is the only guide. The result is a beautiful combination of power and energy, which makes our palate vibrate intensely.
In stainless steel tank (75%) and wood barrel (25%) Spontaneous fermentation 10 months ageing on lees and no added sulphites
Produced in a limited quantity of about 2,000 bottles per year.
Notes from the producer
"Each year, a Vibratis is born, a true reflection of the vintage and our terroir. Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, symbol of freshness and power. Sulfur-free winemaking, fine selection of clear wines and the absence of liqueur result in a wine that is completely assumed, for whom precision is the only guide. 2017 was a cool year and ended with excess heat in the last grape ripening times. From there was created a beautiful combination between power and energy, which intensely vibrates our palate."
