TASTING NOTE : a fresh, precise, fruity nose. Subtle and taut on the palate, and bursting with lovely fruit. Mild, subtle tannins. Ageing: can be drunk young, but also laid down for a decade or so. Pairing: poultry or tender meat (e.g. veal rib with chanterelles, and sautéed new potatoes). Maturing: 18 months in barriques. 

ABOUT THE WINERY : high-density planting (8,000-10,000 vines per hectare). No insecticides few treatments (depending on weather), small amount of organic-only fertiliser, with respect of soil and vine balance. Vigour and yield control, leaf-thinning and green harvesting to promote grape maturation. Vinification: the grapes are hand-picked; and then sorted, crushed and partially destemmed in the cellar. Fermented in open, temperature-controlled vats for about 3 weeks, with regular cap-punching and pumping-over. Malolactic-fermented
