£100.00

Our flagship wine boasts a delicate blend of peach, floral, and yeasty flavors, complemented by a soft, broad palate. The 2023 harvest yielded a bountiful crop, carefully hand-picked after a brief delay to ensure optimal ripeness.
This aromatic dry white wine, bottled in June 2024, showcases a harmonious balance of Bacchus, Ortega, Faber, Siegerrebe, and Huxelrebe grape varieties. With 11% alcohol and no added yeast, the wine’s natural fruit aromas (hedgerow, citrus, elderflower) will continue to evolve over time.
Aged in large foudres, 10% of the blend adds a silky texture and creamy structure, without imparting oak flavors. Enjoy this elegant wine in its youth or cellar for a few years.
