Each parcel is harvested manually and vinified separately. Farming is with biodynamic preparations which greatly help elucidate the expression of terroir in the wines. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTarlant are known for their exceptional brut nature wines and have been producing them long before they became fashionable. Their success comes from carefully managing the full ripening of the fruit to assuring gentle gravity pressing and primarily working with natural yeasts in the cellar, avoiding malolactic fermentation. Bottle ageing takes place for up to four years for the Zero and up to fifteen years for the Prestige cuvees. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis philosphy of “following the wines rather than forcing them” creates wonderful results, with Tarlant’s wines being both powerful but with a wonderful liveliness and finesse balanced on a fine acid line.
