Production Details Spontaneous fermentation in used barriques, without additions, fining or filtration; at least 30 months of lees ageing followed by manual disgorgement. A CPHWINES 750 ml listing describes élevage on laths and records a 2025-10-27 disgorgement for its listed delivery, while explicitly warning that disgorgement dates can vary between deliveries. That listing recommends serving at 8–10°C.
Tasting Notes Flint, candied citrus, chalky minerality, fresh citrus, white flowers and subtle oak; tense, luminous and lively, with saline freshness and a long, crisp finish
