Production Details Fruit-sweet style. The producer reports 100% healthy grapes, gently crushed and briefly macerated on the aroma- and mineral-rich skins. The must underwent slow, cool spontaneous fermentation, followed by gentle maturation in stainless steel and a long, unspecified period on fine lees.
Tasting Notes Intense, concentrated and fruit-forward yet elegant nose showing full ripeness; complex, taut, concentrated and structured palate; mineral tension and depth; long, piquant-spicy slate finish.
Food Pairing Spicy dishes, especially Southeast Asian flavors; light desserts; goose liver; and bacon-wrapped dates.
