Description

There is as much concentration as you can cram in without being over-ripe. A little wild and nervy to begin with and with very fine and uniform acidity. Transitions to a generosity and power that knocks you back. the finish is finer, saline and more delicate fruits. You can almost eat this one! 2028 to 2036

Producer Information: Christian Clerget

The first time I met Christian he was in a hurry to catch a plane to Nepal and climb the 7th or 8th highest peak in the world. Fortunately his wife Isabelle and daughter Justine are equal parts
of a wonderful family who strive to express what their vineyards offer. As Christian says, ‘don’t try to cheat the vines’.

Justine is in charge now though and starting to make her mark. She is forging ahead with biodynamics and using whole bunch fermentation for almost a third of the harvest.
