Millésime Exception
THE EMOTION OF A MILLÉSIME IN A MOULDED BOTTLE, THE MEMORY OF A CERTAIN YEAR
The idea of the Millésime Exception is to capture the seasons of one year into the glass. Behind the wine there is in this cuvée the climate of a remarkable, exceptional year. The terroir steps sideways, precedence given to the four seasons.
