Coming from a single vineyard plot, the south east facing slope is surrounded by traditional sandstone walls and terraces. The unique microclimate produces a distinctive wine with intense aromas including fresh blackcurrant, strawberries and other forest fruits. It is intensely flavoured with a grainy texture and firm acidity, giving it aging potential. Grapes were hand-picked, partially de-stemmed (60%) and placed in open top fermenters with no use of pumps.
