about the harvest: Semillon, which provides structure, and Sauvignon Blanc, which provides freshness, were used in this wine.

in the cellar : Berries were selected in the vineyard, of which 98% were botrytis infected grapes. There was a long fermentation with Vin 7 yeast after which the wine was transferred to 100% French oak.
It remained in barrel for 14 months to add further complexity.
