In biodynamics, the farm is a living organism subject to cosmic rhythms. There are two ways of interpreting this: one astrological, more inclined towards esotericism and of less interest to us; and one astronomical, more concrete, focusing on magnetic influences and astral physical interactions. Jupiter is the most important planet in the entire solar system.
It orbits the Sun in 12 years and, year after year, passes through each of the constellations visible from our vantage point. Although a quarter of the Blanc de Blancs blend consists of reserve wines, we are far from the idea of a wine that remains identical over time. Indeed, we wish for our Blanc de Blancs cuvées to remain closely linked to their vintage of origin and to the constellation in which Jupiter was situated at the time of the harvest.
With these small batches, where the ageing time on the lees is doubled, if not tripled, we aim to gauge the ‘true strength’ of our most representative wine.
