Wine making : with a wonderful exposition and planted with prime stocks, the vineyard is most carefully tended and benefits from accomplished methods of cultivation. The harvest, vinified in the traditional way, is aged in oak cask and put into bottles which are kept in underground cellars, admirably suited for ageing.
Wine charateristic : The resulting wines are powerful with melting tannins and much appreciated for their remarkable finesse and delicate bouquet.
