Françoise Bedel Dis Vin Secret 2018 is a vintage Champagne from the intricate terroir of Crouttes-sur-Marne. Françoise Bedel has been a pioneer in biodynamic practices since 1979, managing an 8-hectare estate with a keen focus on hand-harvesting. This cuvée, utilising a blend of Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir, is vinified in oak barrels and enamel tanks. With extended lees ageing and minimal dosage, it presents a complex array of flavours, balancing fruit-driven freshness with subtle hints of spice and earthy undertones.
