A wine of great delicacy and finesse. A fine, dry
aperitif style, the extended time on lees imparts
wonderful complexity and texture. Pure, with
incredible line and length, the wine has a poised,
lingering finish.
Vinification
Traditional Method. Whole bunch pressed, only
the cuvée used (512.5L/t). Primary fermentation
in stainless steel before bottling, followed by
secondary fermentation in bottle with four years
on lees.
Assemblage: 43% 2020 pinot noir, 44% 2020
chardonnay, 13% reserve wine (2019 vintage –
6% chardonnay, 7% pinot noir).
Vintage Notes
2020 will be remembered for many things other than the unique wine growing
season it produced. The wines are super fine and made in tiny quantities.
