About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow on hillsides with gravelly, limestone soils.

Vinification

Harvest runs from mid-September to mid-October. The grapes are then dried and pressed, and the must is fermented at low temperatures.

Ageing

The wine ages in two stages: three years in tonneaux, then several months in bottle.

Tasting profile

Full-bodied.

Label / history

The wine is not made every year. Each release is limited to no more than 2000 bottles.
