Grapes come from a tiny plot that Marie-Lise and Thomas planted next to their house, and this is only the second time that they have been able to use the grapes. Certified biodynamic. Half of the grapes were macerated for 5 days, the other half were direct pressed. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Half raised in tank and half in used barrels. Barrel racked to tank after 11 months and allowed to settle for two months. Unfined, unfiltered.
Amor Fati roughly translates to love your fate, or love your destiny.
Just look at the colour! The lightest and most joyful release yet. Pale in colour and almost rosé-like in appearance, it bursts with tart cranberry, wild strawberry and redcurrant, supported by mouthwatering acidity and a gently savoury finish. Chill it well and enjoy it with friends - this is uncomplicated, utterly delicious drinking.
