Whole cluster macerated for eight to ten days, fermented with indigenous yeasts in wooden tanks, then aged 36 48 months in large foudres without fining or filtration. A wine of transparency and tension, this is Eric Texier's revivalist testament to nearly forgotten Rhne terroir, drinking beautifully after a decade of age. In magnum for optimal evolution.
