"The last two barrels of wines from 2013 have made it into bottles. It goes without saying that this wine is filled with emotions. For us these barrels have followed us since the first wines we made and therefore the entire evolution of our little Domaine, but also, for us they’re the very essence of the style of winemaking we have been aiming for since we started.

Patience, ripe grapes, respect for the time needed in barrels, the balance that are created over time and the delicateness of oxidation. 100 % Pinot Gris, filled into barrels in the spring of 2014 where it stayed untouched for more than 10 years without any topping up, soutirage or any other things. The rich old fruit, the saltiness and the oxidation dominates this wine. Bottling an old wine like this, is in some way to capture a picture of the 10 years that have pasted.

But it’s not a goodbye to these 10 years, it’s a hello to the years to come. It’s from today and onward it becomes interesting to follow this wine and all the small, slow movements it will make it the bottles - Patience is everything in winemaking, and in winedrinking!"
