Sourced from two high density plots, rich in limestone. Hand harvested. After pressing, the grapes are transferred by gravity to concrete tanks for fermentation with indigenous yeasts for 15 days. 75% of the cuvee is aged 18 months in concrete, while 25% goes into untoasted oak foudres for added texture. Aged 6 months in bottle before release. Notes of blackberry, blueberry, chocolate, and violets. Organic.
