A cuvée made with purchased grapes, from very old Sauvignon vines, farmed organically by Valentin Valles. The very small bunches were harvested by hand on the 15th of August, followed by one week of maceration, and pressing in a 500-litre ratchet press. Working by gravity, barrels are filled by bucket for fermentation. A week before bottling, Lolita added a little of her Syrah, which had macerated for a week, to bring structure and substance. Bottled at the beginning of November, the wine is unfiltered, unfined, and received zero sulphur.
