Notes & Pairings

This has been one of their single vineyards that has grown on us over the years. It’s at the foot of a volcano where supposedly a large layer of lava flowed over. After millions of years of erosion, it’s extremely nutrient poor (little to no loam or humus), always gives a high extract and forces the roots to go deep. Planted nearly 50 years ago, it was so rocky (tons of rhyolite) that the local wine council extracted stones to help build a local road. Flinty aromatics and a needed few grams of RS, this is like drinking out of a quartz bowl with a chalk rim.
