Production Details Matured on the full lees for 12 months with no bâtonnage. Recommended serving temperature is 8–10°C. The importer lists 110 calories and 1 g carbohydrate/sugar per 5 oz and describes the wine as sustainably grown, pesticide- and herbicide-free, GMO-free and gluten-free. The sheet is internally inconsistent about vine age: its headline says 100-year-old ungrafted vines, while the technical table says over 120 years on original rootstocks.
Tasting Notes Producer: ripe yellow fruit including peach, apricot and quince, salty slate minerality and spicy notes. James Suckling/Stuart Pigott (September 2025): sliced fennel and fennel seed, compact and crisp, structured and concentrated. Vinous (October 2025; 92–94-point range): tangerine zest, salty flavor, lightness, dense creaminess and svelteness.
Food Pairing Risotto with Mediterranean herbs; Thai curry; mildly spicy Asian dishes
