Match

Poultry

Poultry works with light white wines — Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc — or soft reds like Pinot Noir, Grenache.

Match

Cheese

Cheeses pair well with wine: hard cheeses with reds, soft and blue cheeses with whites and fortified wines.

Winemaking

The 2020 vintage was shaped by a dry summer that reduced yields to just 15 hectoliters per hectare, concentrating the fruit's quality. Following an early manual harvest, rigorous selection was key to preserving the wine's purity and structure.
