A glossy and golden color. A very fine nose marked by notes of citrus fruits. A mouth with a very strong mineral character, a very good acidity which announces a great ageing potential.

(Disbudding, trellising, topping).
VINIFICATION
Manual harvest, sorting on vine then in the vat and finally pressing (pneumatic press) to obtain a slow extraction.

Then follows a light bonding and light filtration before bottling. Bottling is done according to the lunar calendar.
