Production Details The vineyard lies at 330–400 metres above sea level. After gentle pressing, the must is statically clarified and fermented entirely in Allier barriques. Following fermentation, the lees are stirred once weekly for three months; the wine then matures for 10 months in barrique on fine lees, undergoes extended bottle storage, and is released only two years after harvest. Grapes are handpicked and selected with great care.
