The grapes are harvested by hand and then cold macerated for 4 days. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in the wooden fermentation vessel, and the mash cap is submerged at regular intervals. After 14 days, the wine is pressed and continues fermentation in used 500l French oak barrels. After racking, it is stored in the barrels for another 18 months.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine captivates with red berries and tobacco spice. An elegant tannin and a well-integrated acidity support the wine. The medium-heavy limestone soils give the wine a complex mineral finish. We recommend it with dishes like roasted duck and Coq au Vin.
