The vintage 2020 was characterised by a lot of rain, which made the harvest more challenging than usual. Despite the challenges, we managed to pick high quality grapes at a right time.
Overall, the quality of healthy grapes was excellent, with really nice acidities, round, balanced, and rich on the palate.
Whole bunches were pressed and then fermented partly in stainless steel tanks, and partly in barrels (15% new oak) including our 1st Growth single vineyards. After fermentation, both lots remained in their vessels on fine lees, for further maturation to add subtle overtones and a new dimension.
Delicious as an aperitif, with seafood, white meats, or spicy food.
Serve cool.
