• Pinot Noir grapes were handpicked from a single vineyard in Wiltshire on October 5, 2022.

• After arriving at the cellar, they were gently pressed with three hours of skin contact to achieve a delicate rosé hue.

• Following full malolactic fermentation and tirage, the wine underwent secondary fermentation with top-quality Champagne yeast.

• It was then aged on lees for nine months and disgorged in April 2024 with an 8g/L dosage.
