Winemaking and wine style: „It would be artisanal winemaking but before we found the meaning of it, we managed to undermine this category”, says the winemaker. The most important aspect is the harvest, right at the point of ripening, that’s the key to everything. Whole bunch pressing, completely clean must, with selected yeast, fermented along with classical music. „Every wine is an experiment. There aren’t two identical techniques, no two identical steps. I aspire to take few and calm steps, because the wine also comes into being by itself.” An utterly distinctive approach – extremely deep wine structure, crystal clear surface.
