The grapes are pressed gently, the juices are clarified very slightly and then go directly into wood. The alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts and the malolactic fermentation begin spontaneously in the Stockinger casks and vats. The wines are matured on the lees during their first year, with no filtering or fining.
The bottles are taken down into the coolness of the cellars and stacked on lattes, the second fermentation takes place, and the maturation continues slowly for at least 5 more years. Each bottle is disgorged by hand 6 months before being marketed. The dosage is only 2 g/l (extra brut).

What a great bottle in a beautiful shape. Expressive, sophisticated and nuanced. A showcase of oak influence. Buttered croissant, Jerez, chalk, citrus, walnuts and mushrooms. Vinous, delicious and persistent. This wine turned me into the monk that carried the woman long after setting her down on the other side of the river.
