Production Details The fruit came from a 0.22-hectare Pariot plot of 35-year-old vines. Forty percent of the wine was aged in oak barrels for around 12 months, with the balance in stainless-steel tank; the page also specifies natural yeasts. After assemblage, the blend remained in tank for another six months. Gravity was preferred to pumping, and the wine was bottled without fining or filtration. Vineyard methods are described as natural and organic but not certified organic.
