Production

Manual destemming and fermentation in Tuscan red clay amphorae. Both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation proceed with native yeasts. Ageing on skins adds grip and a tactile, almost sandy finish.

Vineyard

Hand-harvested fruit from Kimmeridgian-era limestone and clay. These ancient marine soils lend both chalky salinity and depth, amplified by careful selection from hillside parcels.

Pairing

Think richer pairings: monkfish with saffron, poularde in cream sauce, or aged goat cheese. Also brilliant with sushi that plays on texture, such as uni or fatty tuna.
