Production Details The 2024 vintage benefited from much-needed winter rainfall and a relatively cool summer, creating ideal conditions for growth and ripening. With no heat waves, consistently low night temperatures, and a dry, cool season, it was an exceptional year for white grapes. The grapes were whole-bunch pressed, and the juice was clarified by settling. Fermentation took place in barrels, followed by bâtonnage (lees stirring) for six months. Aged for six months in older 300L French oak barrels to enhance complexity while maintaining freshness.
