Tasting note
A truly delicious and harmonious wine. Pale gold colour, very bright. The aromas bring to mind honey, almond and lemongrass (citronella). As the wine matures, intense flavours of grilled hazelnut and almonds are in evidence.
Viticulture
Since 1990, bio & biodynamic practices. Vine diversity from massale & clones. Enriching soil naturally. 10,000-12,500 stocks/ha, Guyot pruning for excellence. 20% lower yield, sourcing trusted grapes & must.
Vinification
Hand-harvested in small open crates to maintain fruit integrity. Double sorting in field, at winery. Slow, careful pressing to respect the fruit. Wine straight to barrels after settling. Aged in 20% new Barriques for 12 months.
Food Match
Rich fish (salmon, tuna etc), shellfish, mild and soft cheese.
