The estate has grown extensively over the years. After completing winemaking studies and several years of professional experience, Frederic \u0026amp; Rodolphe Miniere took over the estate in 2005 and decided to produce their own wines in oak barrels so as to promote the values of their exceptional heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith almost 8Ha of land, vineyards are primarily located in Hermonville, whose magnificent, south-east facing hillsides are flooded with sunshine.  The upper hills are covered in sand-loam soil while the lower areas are loam, clay and sand. These well-draining soils contain high levels of minerals which force roots downwards to feed the vines deep within the soil and saturate the sap with mineral elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWines are all produced in oak barrels. Barrels are of varied capacity, origin and age in order to reveal the diverse range of characteristics of our wines and the complexity of their blends, essential to the spirit of champagne. Immediately after the pressing process is terminated, the musts are placed in barrels to ferment. They are left in contact with their lees for 6 months and stirred at varying intervals depending on the year.  Malolactic fermentation is prevented in order to preserve the freshness of the wines after a long ageing process within the cellars. Instead, once bottled wines mature slowly for 5 or 6 years for the youngest and between 8 to 10 years for vintage wines. This slow development allows our wines to fully develop for guaranteed maximum pleasure.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"miniere-f-r-champagne-collection-2009","title":"Miniere F \u0026 R Brut Influence Collection 2009","description":"\u003cp\u003eBlend : 35% Pinot Noir, 40% Meunier, 25% Chardonnay\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinification : Vinified and aged in oak barrels for 8 months.
