100% Syrah. 15 year old vines from a single vineyard “Fonte Domini” at 600m altitude. Biodynamic.
The grapes are handpicked on the 30th of September and 4th of October to ensure an accurate degree of maturation and a healthy state. Spontaneous Fermentation with Pied de Vat in stainless steel tanks. Whole bunches fermentation (30 to 50% stems). Extraction is done mainly through punch downs. Total time of maceration 15-20 days. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. 18 months in 30 hl oak casks and ceramic jars (10%). No fining, no filtration.
From high-altitude vineyards, 600m, so the wine is very fresh and elegant with a lot of structure. Showcases vibrant dark fruit flavors, Asian spices, and a beautiful, balanced structure. Candied blackberries, black olive, hard to pick the vintage as it’s looking so youthful for it’s age. Rhone alternative for sure, reminds me of the wines from Pierre Gonon in Saint Joseph, France. So vibrant and lively.
