Production Details Hand harvested and given one week of cold maceration before indigenous-yeast fermentation in open-top wooden tanks. Matured for 12 months in French oak barrels, one-third new, followed by 6 months in tank; bottled unfined and unfiltered, with all work following the lunar cycle. The sheet says the estate vines were planted in 1998 but separately gives an average vine age of 30 years; because those statements are internally inconsistent for a 2022 release, no canonical vine_age claim is proposed.
Tasting Notes Red plums, red cherries, light herbs, baking spices, pepper, red and black fruits, fine-grained tannins and good concentration
Food Pairing Grilled lamb burgers; duck with dried fruit
