Vinification/aging : The grapes at full maturity are very carefully harvested, sorted and destemmed. Before pressing, the juice and seeds macerate for 10 to 12 hours in a tank previously saturated with carbon dioxide. This pellicular maceration extracts very subtle complex aromatic and mineral compounds and also increases the fatness of the wine. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats. Ageing: the wine is aged on fine lees for 16 to 18 months.

Taste and nose : Great expression of minerality, flavors of dried fruit, candied fruit and honey. We obtain a wine with a nice roundness, very fruity and with a nice fullness.

Food pairing : It is combined with more advanced dishes of white meat and fish in sauce.
