Each cluster hung from the vine with glorious perfection

where the soils are not the usual slate

Leaning to the orange side of the style range

The flavor profile is slightly finer than that of the more muscular Champans with excellent definition and verve if not quite the same mid palate concentration. There is stunningly good length and faultless balance and overall, this is a combination of finesse, focused power and excellent complexity.
