Notes about product

A visionary, perfectionist, and passionate winery shows their respect of the terroir and their love of the land. The Estate is fully organic, with a biodynamic approach to land and cellaring. The harvest is done manually on the entire farm. Strict pruning practices and green harvesting guarantees the right number of clusters and better air circulation per vine. This also brings colour, structure, and complexity of aromas to the berries.

Winemaking notes

The winery’s philosophy is that nature is much more gifted than man, and that technology is only used to avoid blunders. They let the natural yeasts of the land do the work, checking the evolution of the fermentation through frequent analysis. The wine undergoes 100% destemming and fermentation is all done in temperature controlled tanks.

Tasting notes

Fruity aromas such as strawberry, cherry, redcurrant, pink grapefruit, and tangerine combine with floral scents, and old fashioned roses. This rosé is round and fresh with of the same fruit and floral notes on the palate.
