The grapes are co-fermented using native yeasts, followed by aging in large old oak foudre for 11 months. This approach allows the wine to retain its freshness while developing complexity from the oak.
The wine is elegant, offering bright, fresh flavors of red cherries, raspberries, and wild herbs. The palate is clean with a slightly sour cherry edge and balanced by savory notes of dried Mediterranean herbs. The tannins are soft and fine, making it approachable and complex with layers of subtle spice?.

Mostly old bush vines (some younger vines) on decomposed granite soils. Spontaneous fermentation. So aromatic! Violets and daphne. This is stunning. Tannins the texture of old clay chimney pots. So fragrant and beautiful. Damson and rose hip and pitanga. Sour cherries. Tang and tension. So many layers, hidden folds, building from fruit to flower to the lightest, finest haze of spice. Chapters of poetry. (TC) 12.5%
