Product notes
This cuvée bears the name of the owner's daughter who designed the label herself.
Production notes
In organic farming, the soils are worked. Work, double guyot pruning. The harvest is done manually, in small crates, so as not to damage the raisins. With an aging of 16 months, including 10 months in barrels.
Tasting notes
Beautiful olfactory intensity with slightly smoky notes and lots of fruit. Pleasant mineral touch. The palate confirms an elegant bouquet with a beautiful fruity intensity. There is crunch and freshness. A balanced, juicy, perfectly balanced wine with silky tannins. Pairings with flank steak and marinated lamb skewers.
