Winemaking

The wine is aged in oak with careful attention to wood influence, building the toasted almond notes and creamy texture while preserving the site's mineral expression.

Serving & Pairing

Serve at 50 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit. No decanting needed. Pair it with roasted chicken or butter-poached scallops for everyday pleasure, or hold it alongside white truffles and risotto for a more composed table. The acidity and minerality cut through richness while the wine's body matches the weight of the dish.
