Terroir and Winemaking
The vines, averaging 50 years of age, benefit from an optimal southeast exposure. Traditional winemaking in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by partial aging in oak barrels, imparts structure and complexity. Rigorous grape selection and additive-free winemaking ensure a pure expression of the terroir.
Tasting Notes

Food Pairing

Storage and Service
Ready to drink now or can be cellared for 5 to 8 years. Decant for 30 minutes before serving to release the aromas. Store in a cellar at 12–14°C, away from light and vibrations.
