Harvesting & Wine Making
The grapes were harvested at 23 brix during March 2024, very early in the morning and transported to the cellar. We use 100% cuvée juice to achieve a delicate, light color. The juice undergoes natural settling before being transferred to a small tank for fermentation at 14-16°C. It remained on the lees for three months before being bottled.
Bottling: 1126 bottles were produced.

High Altitude Wines
At higher elevations, vines struggle against nature, and from that struggle, wines of remarkable clarity and intensity are born.
