About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards have southern exposure, a favourable microclimate and distinctive limestone soils.

Vinification

After harvest, the grapes ferment in stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine matures in French oak barrels for 15–18 months, followed by at least six months in bottle.

Tasting profile

The 2006 vintage is well structured, with a pleasant flavour and exceptionally silky tannins.
