The 45-year-old Chenin Blanc grapes, grown on a plateau at an altitude of 350m, are mixed with clay, limestone, and white sand, and are fermented at low temperatures using natural yeast. By pressing the whole bunch and aging in tanks, the purity of the fruit and the complex aroma are both achieved. The wine has a refined taste with nuances of spice, honey, and ripe fruit, a fresh and smooth mouthfeel, and a powerful lingering finish.
