The vineyard

Ideal combination

Fish

Fish pairs best with white and rosé wines: they don't overpower the taste and suit different cooking methods.

Match

Sushi

Sushi and sashimi pair well with light, high-acid white wines — they refresh the palate and let the delicate flavour of the fish come through.

Match

Winemaking

Harvesting is done by hand with a strict selection of the berries. Fermentation takes place primarily in traditional large wooden casks, which adds structure and complexity while preserving the vibrant fruit character.
