The grapes are harvested by hand and then directly pressed in a pneumatic press. Alcoholic fermentation takes place entirely in French oak barrels, of which 40% are new. The lees are stirred (bâtonnage) occasionally during ageing, which lasts 13 months. Lovely golden hue. Delicate and floral on the nose, revealing aromas of pears. Supple and pleasant on entry to the palate. Straightforward and well balanced mid-palate, lovely minerality and lively mouth-watering acidity, all enhanced by hints of toast on the finish.
