The Champagne Crucifix Stéréographe is the entry-level sparkling wine of Maison Crucifix Père et Fils. This Premier Cru Champagne originates in Montagne de Reims, Avenay-Val d'Or, AOC Champagne.
An equal blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it was sourced from Premier Cru vineyards over 35 years old on average grown in clay-limestone soils. The grapes were harvested by hand and sorted on site.
The alcoholic fermentation of this Champagne from Reims was carried out in stainless steel tanks. After that, 20% of the Chardonnay was aged for 7-8 months in new 205 and 300-litre Champagne casks.
After going through malolactic fermentation, the Champagne Crucifix Stéréographe was bottled and aged for no less than 4 years. It was disgorged at least 4 months before hitting the market.
The dosage of this Champagne Extra Brut is less than 6 grams per litre.
