Sweet wine without sulfites or filtration, which explains the slight bubbles upon opening. Botrytis (noble rot) gives aromatic complexity, but also body and freshness on the palate. Very deep clay granite. True technical achievement of vinification without additives on sweet wines. RARE wine (Nothing Added Nothing Removed)
