Grapes are grown on steep terraces with schist soils and are hand-picked. Natural yeasts convert half the sugar to alcohol, and neutral grape spirit is added to interrupt fermentation. The wine is aged in 550-litre old oak barrels for an average of ten years.

– 150 stores.


As a lot of Tawny this smells very earthy and hardly fruity at all. Intensely savoury, spicy and delicious with great warming qualities.
