30-year-old vines on clay-limestone soils produce fruit for this wine that's 100% destemmed and wild-fermented - 70% in vat and 30% in four-year-old barrels - for 10 months before being bottled. It has a lifted, precise and fresh aromatic profile that's gently peppery. The palate is medium-bodied and again very fresh and lively, showing great focus and energy. Juicy berry acidity and fine but toothsome, textural tannins reveal themselves on the finish. Kapow!
