The grapes come from two vineyard sites in Varen and Leytron, planted on steep glacial scree with a limestone subsoil; yields are around 650–660 g/m². Following gentle long pressing and strict clarification, the wine ferments for around four weeks in oak casks. It matures for twelve months in barriques, 40 % of which are new oak. Apricot, peach and pear define the intense aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is fresh, concentrated and balanced, with a creamy texture, substantial body, fine acidity and a long, spicy finish. It is not fined and is finely filtered.
