Description

Manual harvest in crates in mid-September; the grapes are destemmed and transferred to the tank where the 24-hour maceration takes place; the skins are then separated from the juice and gently pressed, before the fermentation process starts spontaneously inside the terracotta amphorae; the wine ages in the amphorae for a period of three years, where it refines on the fine lees with batonnage practices from time to time.

Tasting

Nose of white flowers and yellow fruit jam, with notes of candied citrus, honey and aromatic herbs; warm and enveloping sip, savoury and mineral, of great elegance and persistence.

Pairings

Fried seafood, second courses of fish, crustaceans and molluscs.
