Viticulture and production
Gentle pressing after destemming to extract the free-run juice. Natural fermentation, using the yeasts present on the grape skins, for 27 days at 16°C. It remains on its fine lees until bottling, which took place on November 26, 2024. It does not undergo microfiltration, so a slight sediment may appear in the bottle.

Tasting and pairing
On the nose, it's delicate, with aromas of red fruits, especially strawberry. On the palate, it's fresh with good acidity that provides balance. It has a silky texture and is rich in fruity nuances. The finish is long, with the strawberry notes reappearing.
