Grand Père
2023
Red nervy fruit, pepper and oregano on the nose. The palate is juicy but incisive, with red bramble fruit. The palate is saline, succulent and focused, with so much harmony. From a 2-hectare plot planted in 1993 in Villa Bastías.

Composed of Dijon clones planted in 1993 on the alluvial limestone soils of the Domingo Vineyard, the 2023 Grand Père Pinot Noir fermented in 600-liter roll fermenters, open-top and concrete tanks with 30% whole-cluster inclusion before an eight-month élevage in used barrels and foudre. It offers a touch more aromatic depth and complexity than the Grand Mère bottling, driven by expressive orange peel, dried spices and turned-earth notes. The palate is both deeper and more lifted, combining lively energy with mineral persistence that runs through the long, nuanced and luscious finish.
