The Pinot Gris grapes come exclusively from a prized Grand Cru of the estate and are characterized by a particularly intense and rich profile. The aging in wood contributes to give even more body and structure to the wine, which presents itself as a white that expresses intense and complex aromas, with a particularly gastronomic vocation.
