Vines are grown between 200–450m on calcareous-clay soils—once a riverbed—strewn with heat-deflecting stones called cuti. These magical stones impart a brilliant minerality on the grapes as well as soaking up the suns heat and transferring this to the vines, promoting an earlier ripening and benefitting acidity and freshness. Organic farming is practiced throughout supporting biodiversity, with native flowers and plants enriching the vineyard ecosystem and enhancing soil vitality.
The grapes undergo a brief cryomaceration at 4°C for 4–12 hours to enhance aroma and freshness. This is followed by a gentle pressing and clarification. The wine is then aged in stainless steel for three months to preserve its vibrant, pure character.
This wine’s a natural with anything from the sea—think grilled fish, buttery shellfish, or crispy fried seafood.
