Production Details 75% whole-cluster fermentation. Mottox specifies 12 months in oak followed by 4 months in stainless steel, a 0.25 ha vineyard area, and stated annual production of 1,480 with no unit displayed. Amitié independently also states 75% whole clusters and 12 months in oak, but its concrete-fermentation and used-oak-only account conflicts with Mottox’s stainless-steel and 20%-new-oak specifications.
Tasting Notes Jancis Robinson’s 2022 cask sample: elegant and ripe, with violets, opulent raspberry, and weighty tannins.
Food Pairing Duck breast, venison, roast lamb, and aged hard cheeses
