Climate The cooler, southern exposure is home to the most sensitive and aromatic white-skinned grape varieties, as in our Chenin Blanc Timepiece. Altitude: 195 m a.s.l. Exposure: South.
Soil composition Decomposed granite and loam.
Wine making The juice was fermented in a combination of oak barrels and clay amphorae. 51% of the juice was fermented in 228 litre French oak barrels and 49% in 400 litre clay amphorae over a period of 6 months. The amphora has the natural ability to keep the lees in constant suspension during fermentation.
Aging Fermentation was followed by malolactic fermentation in both amphora and barrels, and maturation took place "sur-lie" for 6 months with occasional "barrel rolling" to add richness to the palate. Six barrels were subjected to natural fermentation. No sulphide was added during vinification and only at final bottling.
Total acidity 5.2 gr/L
PH 3.29
Residual sugar 2.2 gr/L
Allergens Contains sulphites
