This cuvée is 100% Pinot Noir from vines over 60 years old, biodynamically farmed (certified since 2011) and planted on marl soils. Hand-harvested with low yields around 20 hl/ha. Natural vinification: 8-day cold pre-fermentation maceration, 5-week maceration with gentle punchdowns, soft pressing, and 12 months of aging in large casks. All cellar work is done according to the biodynamic calendar. Bottled at the estate, unfiltered, with just a micro-dose of sulfur.
