Manual harvest and selection of the grapes; gentle whole cluster pressing and clarification of the must by natural sedimentation; slow fermentation at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks with malolactic fermentation and aging on the lees in big wooden barrels for 12 months; further aging on the lees in steel tanks without filtering or fining for eleven years. Bottled in August 2023, with only 3,300 bottles being produced. The wine exhibits an intensive light straw yellow colour with delicate greenish reflections On the nose, this Rarity wine captivates with a combination of extreme complexity and impressive freshness: noble aromas of white flowers, chamomile, some white peach paired with restrained mineral notes reminiscent of flint. On the palate, the wine impresses with a grippy, compact yet supple structure. Its distinctive texture generates an infinitely long finish, with enormous tension and salty minerality. A wine to enjoy now or cellar for over 10 years.
