Eight months in French oak and partial malolactic fermentation have woven seamlessly into the fruit, creating a wine of substance and structure. Release: March 2026.
Winemaking
Barrel fermented exclusively in French oak barriques (40% new) for 10 months; only partial natural malolactic fermentation. Unfined: suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
