A blend of estate-grown, single-vineyard Chardonnay (60%) & Pinot Noir (40%). The base wines go through 100% malolactic conversion and the wine is according to the méthode traditionnelle. It is aged for seven years on the yeast lees. Their Grande wines are made to show off the vintage they were grown in, selecting the best parcels of fruit to give freshness, elegance, balance and intensity. Only made in the best years, they are drier and more refined than the NV and are made entirely from the one vintage. Showing exceptional purity and approachability, with a rich but poised palate singing with white peach and brioche, along with notes of dry hay lingering though the dry finish. It’s a wine of tremendous personality and sophistication.
