About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vines grow at 400 metres above sea level on southwest-facing plots with clay and slate soils.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand in late September and transported to the winery in small steel crates before fermentation.

Ageing

The wine matures for 16 months in new barriques, followed by 9 months in bottle.
