about the harvest: Vintage: The 2024 harvest began two weeks earlier than the previous year due to unforeseen winds in late November and early December, resulting in a reduced yield. Despite this, elevated temperatures in early February necessitated an early grape harvest, with the anticipated quality remaining
exceptional.

Picking date: February 2024

in the cellar : Method: After de-stemming, the juice was given skin contact for two-hours before extracting only the clear, free-run juice. Seventy percent of the wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged on the lees for three months.

Wood maturation: Thirty percent of the wine was fermented and aged for six months in 500-litre French oak barrels on the lees. No malolactic fermentation took place, ensuring that the wine's fresh acidity is retained
