The grapes come from around 200 estate-owned parcels exclusively in Corullón, on steep slopes of coarse-grained Cambrian slate at 500 to 950 metres. The 50- to 90-year-old vines are harvested by hand; fermentation takes place over 30 days in open wooden vessels with indigenous yeasts. The wine then ages for 14 months in French barriques and is bottled unfined and unfiltered. It shows ripe red and black fruit, mineral and wild-herb notes, fresh acidity, fine spice and a balanced, medium-bodied structure. The 2021 vintage is described as particularly elegant and balanced.
