Each vineyard lot was handled according to its character; 80% of the wine was skin soaked and pressed — 75% was saignée and 5% was skin fermented for subtlety and complexity. Bottled in 400 g lightweight glass to reduce carbon footprint. Closed with Stelvin to preserve freshness. Certified by Pro-Cert Organics and Demeter (biodynamic).
