Production Details For the 2023 release, hand-harvested co-planted fruit was destemmed and macerated for 15 days in an open tub, then matured for 8 months on fine lees without bâtonnage in three old 228 L French barriques; it was bottled without fining, filtration or added SO2. Wine Advocate described a shorter maceration in this warm, concentrated year and tentatively estimated up to 60% white grapes because of the smaller red crop. Its quoted acidity figure is only described as “6.2 grams of acidity,” without a per-liter unit or acid basis, so it is not mapped to total_acidity_gl.
