The vines grow in the upper part of the east- to south-east-facing site, with slopes of up to 30 per cent. The soil consists mainly of clay marl with limestone inclusions and weathered limestone clay. The vintage is described as concentrated and cool-matured, with taut, chalky acidity. The nose and palate show citrus, cool peach, quince, stony and smoky notes, as well as salinity. According to Falstaff, the wine is matured for ten months in oak casks; the estate ferments its wines exclusively with natural yeasts.
