Complete description
Vintage Description:
It opens with aromas of yellow stone fruit, brioche and crushed stone that carry over to the elegantly structured palate, along with tangy tangerine and bright acidity. A refined perlage gives it a weightless concentration while a savory mineral note lingers on the bone-dry finish. In a word, it's gorgeous. (Kerin O´Keefe - Wine Enthusiast, 4.01.2018)wine:

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. Only wine from the best barrels of the 25 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. No added dosage.Residual sugar:
