About This Wine
From a 2 ha south facing site planted half 1965 and half 1990 on sandy soil over clay with a limestone base. Whole cluster pressed for 4.5 hours. Juice is selected with the first 25% of the press juice and the last 30 minutes of the press juice declassified and blended into the entry-level appellation wines. Batonnage (stirring of the lees) is made toward the end of the primary fermentation and for some months after the wine is dry to “open up the wines” and work against reduction. The first SO2 addition is made just before bottling. This shows notable acid freshness giving great length and shape on the palate. Very long with terrific complexity and ageing potential.
