Whole bunch maceration lasted 2-3 weeks, followed by wild yeast fermentation. Aging took place for 20 months in 29% tanks, 10% new oak barrels, 6% one-year-old oak barrels, and 55% old demi-muids. No fining, only light filtration. Refined and elegant, this wine possesses incredible complexity. While offering nuances of ripe fruit and pepper, it also retains the pleasant freshness of the high-altitude granite terroir.
