Tasting Notes: This wine has a bright citrus acidity that gives it a crisp and refreshing start. There are tangy herbal notes that add complexity, along with flavours of lemon, baked apple, and pear. The wine has a touch of honeyed richness, adding some depth, while the minerality and acidity keep it clean and crisp on the finish.
Winemaking: Following a 48-hour maceration period prior to pressing, the wine undergoes vinification and matures for an impressive 18 months, cradled on its lees within barrels aged 5-6 vintages old.
All wines originate from vines cultivated through organic or biodynamic practices and are hand-harvested. Gentle and extended pressings, lasting between 5 and 8 hours, ensure delicate extraction, while fermentation initiates solely through indigenous yeasts, allowing for the purest expression of the vineyard's essence to unfold.
