WINE DESCRIPTION

Crafted from nearly 70-year-old vines grown on limestone in Charnay, this wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation with four weeks on the skins and occasional punching down. It presents sweet forest fruits and cherries on the nose, complemented by clove pepper, bay leaf, and freshly ground pepper. The palate reveals a lovely chalky bite and fine spiciness that pairs perfectly with the sweet, fresh berry flavors. Enhanced by the subtle wooden notes from 5-6-year-old barriques, this lively and fresh wine is an excellent everyday companion, yet far from ordinary.
