MORE INFORMATION:
Meticulous quality sorting continues in the cellar, ensuring only perfectly ripened berries are vinified. Fermentation occurs overtwo weeks in stainless steel tanks with regular pump-overs for vibrant colour and supple tannins. Embracing minimal intervention, the wine undergoes light filtration and matures for 16 to 18 months in 300-litre French oak barrels(34% new, 33% second-fill, 33% third-fill) for a balanced oak influence. Final bottle maturation enhances integration and complexity, resulting in a wine of elegance and true sense of place

Flame-grilled ribeye, slow-braised lamb shank, or a rich wild mushroom risotto.
