The vines are Guyot-trellised and grow south-facing, at 400-500m altitude. The soil is a combination of sand, loam, clay and quartz. The 100% Vermentino grapes are hand-harvested towards the middle of September. After destemming and soft pressing at low temperatures, the wine is fermented in stainless steel over a period of 15 days. The wine spends 6 to 8 months on fine lees, and a further 2 months in bottle before release.A fresh, vibrant nose with subtle citrus and honey aromas complemented by lightly herbal notes. The palate is focused and textural with ripe apricot characters offset by mineral notes and a taut saline finish.
