Technical information
When perfectly ripe, the grapes are harvested by hand, undergo whole bunch soft pressing and are processed for white wine; a fair proportion of the must ferments in steel tanks and the remainder in French oak barriques, where the wine stays on its lees for around 11 months. After bottling, around a year after harvest, the wine ages in bottle for at least 6 months before being released for sale.
Tasting notes
Light straw yellow in colour, complex and refined bouquet with pronounced notes of yellow-fleshed fruit, especially ripe pear, which bring elegance and finesse. Full, characterful flavour bolstered by good acidity and persistent tangy finish.
