The grapes come exclusively from Block 14, a vineyard site planted in 2003 on a mixture of marine limestone and sandy dune material, around five kilometres from the Atlantic. Hand-harvesting and six hours of skin contact preceded spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts for 16 days. The wine was aged for twelve months: 30% in new barriques, 40% in second-fill barriques and 30% in egg-shaped vessels. It shows pineapple, citrus zest and white flowers, along with fine vanilla, lively acidity, saline minerality and a clear, taut finish.
