Grapes: Harslevelu
Vineyards: blend of 2 sites, with vines aged 13-45 years. Clay and limestone.
Making of: the grapes were hand-harvested at 3 different times, to balance freshness and ripeness. 15% whole-bunch fermented for 2 weeks, the remaining 85% were direct-pressed. Spontaneous fermentation and 12 months on lees in 500L oak barrels. No filtration, no fining, no SO2 added.
Personality: floral and lipsmacking, with a lovely balance between apricot-mentol notes and juicy acidity. Dry yet smooth tannins, beautiful structure – extremely easy to drink, especially with some (local) quality cold cuts…
