The grapes come from selected parcels with schist, granite, limestone and marl soils in Valais. Each variety was processed separately, fermented spontaneously with natural yeasts after a long cold maceration, and then blended. The wine was matured for around 17 to 18 months in French oak barrels, predominantly new, and then continued to mature in bottle. The warm vintage shows dense, berry-driven fruit with candied fruit, cassis, dark berries and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and freshly structured, with ripe, pronounced tannins and a long finish.
