Working the vines : This parcel is tended by a vine-grower who takes care of the vineyard up to the harvest. Working with the cycle of nature, he enables the terroir to fully express its nuances from vintage to vintage.

Vinification and maturing : Following hand picking in small cases and meticulous sorting of the grapes, pressing takes place in two phases: evacuation of the first juice, then pressing in two-hourly cycles. Depending on the profile of the vintage, maturing is carried out for 8 to 12 months in French oak barrels, with a proportion of new barrels that may be up to 15%.
 
General wine notes: Exquisite bouquet with a variety of aromas skilfully blended with a toasty note. Perfect harmony between power, smoothness and delicacy. The "king of kings". Very good ageing potential. 
 
Food-wine suggestions: Fish and shellfish (tubo, monkfish, lobster, crayfish) in sauce 
 
Service: Between 12°C to 14°C
