Vintage conditions
The 2021 growing season saw a return to weather conditions that were more in line with the long-term average. Good winter rainfall and ideal springtime conditions ensured bunch numbers were solid and fruit set was even. Summer temperatures were mild and favourable autumn conditions enabled a long, even ripening, retaining good natural acidity in the grapes and optimal picking window.
Vinification details
A variety of fruit pressing techniques were used before a mixture of inoculated and wild fermentation took place. The fruit spent 7-12 days on skins before being transferred to seasoned French oak barriques. All vineyard parcels were kept separate until blending stage, following 18 months in French oak (40% new).
