Production Details Fruit comes from Brussonnes, planted in 1986, and Fairendes, planted from 1964–1974. The vineyards have been farmed organically since 2014 and were certified in 2017. Grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed, followed by wild-yeast fermentation. The wine ages on fine lees for 16–18 months in French oak; 100% of the wine is oaked, with approximately 20–30% new oak and little or no lees stirring. Sulfur is used sparingly during barrel élevage, at a stated maximum of approximately 35 mg/L.
