Tasting note
Sunny yellow with green highlights: bouquet of acacia, camomile, honey and nuts. The wood is well proportioned but not hidden and increases complexity. Fresh minerality on the palate and a nice long finish.
Viticulture
Certified Sostain and undergoing organic certification. Transitioning to biodynamic practices from untouched lands. Minimal sulfur and copper use; pest control via insects, sexual confusion, natural agents. Zeolite, kaolin, plant extracts applied for vigor.
Vinification
Hand-harvested grapes chilled in bins overnight to 12°C, then hand-sorted. Whole grapes soft-pressed. Free run must goes to steel vats for two-week cold settling, stirred daily. Transferred to tonneaux, steel, and oak barrels for fermentation (25% steel, 60% barrels, 15% barriques and tonneaux).
Food Match
White with personality; for this reason it can be combined with raw appetizers, seafood and vegetable first courses. White cheeses and noble fish.
