The vines are planted near the Atlantic coast on fossil-bearing, clay-rich limestone soils. After gentle whole-bunch pressing and twelve hours of natural settling, the must ferments with indigenous yeasts in 500-litre casks. The wine remains on its fine lees for 22 months, without stirring, and is bottled unfiltered with a minimal addition of sulphur. In the glass it is vegetal and saline, with notes of green algae and wet gravel, fresh acidity and a lean to medium body.
