(raised in a 50/50 combination of neutral barriques and stainless steel tanks) Pale yellow. Fresh citrus and orchard fruit on the incisive nose and in the mouth. Juicy and taut in style; a gingery element adds spicy lift and back-end cut. The nervy finish shows firm bite, resonating minerality and a subtle tarragon note. Drink: 2018-2021 (May18)

This cuvée is sourced from vineyards in Chavanay that sit on granite-infused soil. The fermentations (alcoholic and malolactic) take place in stainless steel; then, the wines is racked into a mix of stainless steel and small barrel for six months before bottling.
