An open nose with notes of black fruit. A palate composed of aromas of blackcurrant and blackberry. Intense, but with smooth tannins.
Intense on the nose with lots of dark fruits. On the palate, this wine expresses juicy blackberry and blackcurrant with hints of rose, fresh sage, racy minerality and a subtle hint of liquorice and sweet spices. The tannins are fine yet well-structured.
A corner of paradise nestled in Fabrezan. Here, low yields are prioritized, resulting in four wines - two reds and two whites, producing a limited quantity each year. It’s a special range of wines defined by the pursuit of precision. They have been practicing natural winemaking since 2003, by using indigenous yeasts, no sulfur before bottling, and a total SO2 content of less than 30 mg/L for all their vintages. This 10-hectare haven produces terroir-driven wines with a distinct personality. It serves as the winemaker’s sanctuary for reflection and a place to showcase their expertise.
