in the vineyard : The soils are a combination of decomposed granite and sandstone, which contribute structure and fruit concentration, respectively.
The trellised vines range in age from 9 to 20 years. The climate varies greatly due to the 20 to 100 km distance from the cold Atlantic Ocean.
This allows the winemaker to make different styles of wine from the same grape, blending these for a more complex taste.

in the cellar : Grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness, de-stemmed and crushed to stainless-steel tanks.
Alcoholic fermentation lasted up to 12 days. Malolactic fermentation was done with 20% of the wine in neutral French-oak barrels and the remainder in tanks with French-oak staves to complement the wine’s flavour profile and length.
