Q

Ancestral Dioise Mèthod

A

After pressing the juices are filtered and refrigerated. The half-fermented must is bottled and fermentation continues in the bottle from the sugar in the grape, thus giving a naturally sparkling wine. Disgorging carried out at least six months after bottling, while the wine still contains sugar and has reached an alcohol content of 7 to 9 %. The Dioise method gives a wine without added sugar or liquor

Sparkling wine with very fine bubbles, light in alcohol (8°), still containing residual sugars (incomplete fermentation). This wine is marked by the refined Muscat flavours (rose fragance) which only the Dioise method can develop. A highly original wine unique amongst sparkling wines : it is the only naturally sparkling wine and the only one which is so light in alcohol
