“Burgundian Chardonnay and Serious Claret”
(Hugh Johnson – British wine writer, February 2007)


The steep north-facing slopes on which we grow our vines are managed on an environmentally sustainable basis and all vineyard work, from pruning to harvest, is done by hand. Very low yields, mineral-rich clay soils and a sun-drenched vineyard slope combine to enable us to achieve a ripeness, flavour intensity, balance and elegance that is the hallmark of our wines.

Our wine-making philosophy is simple and minimal-intervention – strict fruit selection, gentle must handling in our gravity-flow winery, wild-yeast fermentation, and maturation in top-quality French oak in our underground, temperature-controlled cellar. The wine is bottled at the winery without fining or filtration and rests for a further six months prior to release.
