Production Details Whole bunches undergo semi-carbonic maceration, followed by gentle pressing after 11 days; maturation is 6 months in concrete tank plus 3 months in bottle before release. The vendor lists an acid content of 3.84 g/L without specifying its analytical basis, so it is not proposed as canonical total acidity. Recommended serving temperature is 14–17°C.

Carbonic Maceration Yes
Maceration 11 days
Production Details Selected whole bunches undergo an 11-day semi-carbonic maceration and are then gently pressed. Exact-vintage sources disagree on concrete-tank maturation: Supervin states 6 months, while Vinalia states 7 months; both state a further 3 months in bottle before release. Vinalia recommends serving at 16–18°C and decanting for one hour.
Tasting Notes Blackberry, delicate floral notes, mineral acidity and savory nuances, with a long, precise, silky finish; structured and fresh with a mineral texture
Food Pairing Quail with grapes
