Short maceration ('skin contact') followed by gentle pressing of hand-picked grapes. Cultured-yeast fermentation in stainless steel. Three-month maturation on the fine lees, then filtering and bottling in May.

Medium lemon with green reflections. Delicate fruit on the nose, well-balanced and aromatic on the palate.

Sourced from the Birthal vineyard, where the vines sit on the sandbanks of what used to be a sea. The lightness of the soil lends the wine a certain fragility.
