All the characteristics that make Merlot so masterfully complementary to Cabernet Sauvignon mark it as a great solo act too. It is the feminine counterpart to Cabernet’s
masculinity, �lling out its partner’s almost aromatic herbaceous and �rm, austere structure with �eshy fruit, soft
acids, silky tannins and accessible drinkability.

Unpredictable in the vineyard, di�cult in the cellar, Pinot Noir is nevertheless able to make one of the world’s great
red wines. Pinot Noir is like a ballerina, �ne-tuned and en pointe. It has a rare �uidity, a delicacy, a beguiling beauty that belies an underlying power and structural strength,
responsible for an unexpected ability to age

Botrytis Cinerea (Noble Rot) to appear on the grapes requires ideal weather balance; too cold or too wet or too hot and the harvest will not succeed. �is microorganism reduces the moisture of the grape and concentrates its sugars, and the
fungus adds speci�c character to the eventual wine. Yield from these vines is low and the costs high.
