Produced from 100% Marsanne, sourced from 60-year-old vines in Les Greffieux. This lieu-dit on the northeast- and southeast-facing slopes of Hermitage, is known for its high quality white wines. It is aged for 18 months in mostly old oak barrels.
The nose is highly expressive, revealing notes of flint, ripe apricot, Mirabelle plum, blanched almond, and crisp white stone fruits. On the palate, the wine is poised and refined, offering elegant concentration, vibrant acidity, and a seamless texture. Its mineral backbone extends through a long, persistent finish that combines power with remarkable precision.
