It is a 95-year-old goblet-planted vineyard that self-regulates its production. The farm sits on a loamy terrain with rounded, siliceous and limestone agglomerate with abundant alluvial soil. To make this wine, a triple selection of grapes is carried out, first in the field, then bunch by bunch and finally grain by grain.
