Matthieu Cosse, a talented winemaker, carefully cultivates 24 hectares—9 of which are farmed using sustainable methods—on the siderolitic plateau. Focused on the purity of the fruit, he prioritizes low yields, hand-harvesting at optimal ripeness, and rigorous sorting of the grapes. Gentle extraction and extended aging in barrels result in wines of remarkable density and balance, with delicate tannins. This 100% Malbec offers an authentic and refined expression.
