Production Details A documented 2010 release was described as spending two years in forest-selection barrels before secondary fermentation and being bottled without dosage. The same page is internally inconsistent about disgorgement, showing release context D-3/2023 while its prose says September 2020; therefore no vintage-wide disgorgement-date claim is proposed.
