Production Details Mise en Cave 2020 (first release, based entirely on 2019) contains 0% reserve wine, spent at least 36 months on lees, was disgorged in March 2023 and then aged for at least six further months. Mise en Cave 2021 (second release, based on 2020) contains 28% reserve wine, spent at least 36 months on lees and at least six months ageing after disgorgement; its disgorgement date is bottle-specific and printed on the back label. For both releases, grapes were hand-harvested at full maturity, juices underwent static clarification, and selected yeasts were used. The current producer page recommends serving at 10–12°C and describes ageing potential of up to 15 years; these ranges are retained as text rather than converted to exact numeric fields.
