In a few words ...

The wines come from 60-year-old vines planted on pebble soil. The plot faces north-south and is planted with all three grape varieties. All three grape varieties are vinified together. The harvest is completely destemmed, and alcoholic fermentation takes place in truncated-cone wooden vats. The wine is aged in stainless steel vats for 18 months.

A wine that I found atypical for the appellation. Lots of fruit and finesse, with good length on the palate. I almost thought it had a touch of Burgundy about it! Really nice.

2021 March: dominated by black and red fruit. Round and with less alcohol. Personally, I'd enjoy it in 2021 and 2022, not later.

Very fine, with a pleasant hint of freshness that accentuates the red fruit character.

Slight acidity on the nose, giving way to a lovely sweetness on the palate.
