The 2013 Vintage

The plots of land are over 30 years old on slopes of decomposed granite, the "gore". Harvest is done manually and the vineyard is in the process of conversion to Biodynamic viticulture.
The 2013 vintage was marked with a rainy and cool spring was made up for by a sunny July and a superb September which offered beautiful maturities to the grapes.

The vinification was done in stainless steel tanks, with a maceration of about 4 to 5 weeks with daily punching down and pumping over. The wines are then aged for 18 to 20 months in barrels, of which about 20% are new.
