      Vintage Description:

      Very tight bead and exciting development with some attractive bready notes. This cool, wet vintage really seems to have favoured this wine! Long and complete. Great tension. (Jancis Robinson)

      Vinification:

      Alcoholic fermentation takes place only in small oak casks, made from selected wood seasoned for at least three years. The wine remains on its own lees for six more months, during which time malolactic fermentation is completed. No compromises and no concessions. Only wine from the best barrels of the 15 base wines is drawn off to go into Cuvée. A pair of flying tanks transfers the wine by gravity flow from the barrels to the blending tank.

      Ageing:

      Approx. 8 years on lees.
