Description
The grapes are left 100% whole bunch, and lightly stomped by foot to extract a little juice. Very gentle pumpovers are performed once or twice daily, as we want to minimise extraction and maintain as many whole bunches as possible. The 2023 wine for the first time underwent elevage in concrete. An ageing vessel we really feel helps to showcase best what the vineyard is all about.
Ingredients: Grapes, SO2.
