Champagne, Champagne Régis Poissinet, Irizée Chardonnay, France, Effervescent Extra Brut
Régis Poissinet run this family estate that started in 1947 : the 35 years-old vineyard of 7 hectares is split into 35 plots and is certified organic and biodynamic. It expands on 5 villages, on the different clay-chalk and silt-chalk terroirs. It is mainly planted with Pinot Meunier, following by Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. With the arrival of Régis, the way of working the vines has changed: rigorous respect of the environment, abandon of herbicides, use of the horse to work the soil.
Presentation
In Greek mythology, Iris, the messenger of the gods, symbolizes the link between Earth, the sky and the gods to humanity. Iris being the personification of the rainbow. A vivid tone of shimmering gold, brisk and elegant, the champagne Irizée Chardonnay will take you to a universe of a thousand flavours. Irizée is adorned with the work of the French artist Daniel Castan which, through the vision of a stream of light, symbolizes the invisible link between the earth, humanity and the heavens.
Winemaking
Made from 100% Chardonnay, this cuvée is crafted from a meticulous selection of the best juices of the 2014 vintage: known as the ‘hearts’ of the vintage. The wine is aged for 100% in oak barrels. The bottles are unfiltered, turned by hand to stir the lees, and very lightly dosed (3,5g/l). On the 18 April 2017, 1,702 bottles of extra-brut from the 2013 vintage were disgorged.
