The old vines stand on clay- and limestone-rich Aubuis soils; a parcel of around 1.20 hectares is farmed with horses and harvested by hand. Fermentation takes place with native yeasts. Ageing uses clay amphorae, stainless steel and used or traditionally made wooden casks. The dry white wine shows white fruit, citrus, bergamot, lime blossom, gentle spices and smoky-mineral notes. On the palate it is precise, juicy and slightly phenolic, with natural acidity, saline minerality and a long finish. The amphora provides slow micro-oxidation without imparting oak flavours.
