This is obviously pure Chardonnay. Fermentation takes place in temperature controlled stainless steel and concrete tanks at 18 degrees Centigrade. Left on their lees, the wines are cleaned-up and bottled in the following spring. The assemblage is usually around 90% of the current vintage, with 10% reserve wine, made up of one or two older vintages. It is then aged for a minimum of three years on its crown cork before disgorging and receiving a dosage of around 7g/l.

Le Mesnil-sur-Oger is considered to be the finest of all the Chardonnay dominated villages classified as Grand Cru. It is a large and diverse commune of 420 hectares. Some 320 hectares are owned by individual growers of which, more than 80 commercialise their own Champagne, a notably high figure for the region. The balance of vineyards belong to the Grandes Maisons.

Some critics consider the Coopérative Union des Propriétaires Récoltants (UPR) or, more conveniently called ‘Champagne Le Mesnil’, something of a factory given the scale of its operation, but the quality of the base wine is without question. Established in 1937, the members of the co-operative own some of the best sites within the commune. Their commitment to quality is further endorsed when one considers the close (and confidential) relationship it has with its main trading partners, which include Moët & Chandon, Veuve Cliquot, Taitiinger, Laurent-Perrier, Delamotte and Pol Roger.
