Vintage: vintage with average temperature, with significant amount of rain (930mm) rainfaill  This humid climate resulted in an extreme shock to the vines, challenging their resilience.

 

Vinification process: Crafted from our 22-year-old southeast-facing organic Pinot Noir vineyard, nestled atop a rich basanite bedrock. Despite the challenges of a rainy season and unexpected hail, our dedicated efforts culminated in the harvest of healthy bunches.. The wine was gracefully settled into 320-liter amphoras using gravity alone. Bottled without the addition of sulphites, unfiltered and unfined, this Pinot Noir unapologetically showcases the vibrant fruity essence of its distinctive vintage.​
