PVG Masterclass

Masterclass with PVG himself. First vintage in 2017 at age of 19, no batonnage, no fining, all reductive wine making to ensure the whites can age. 100% new oak but not toasted, custom made 446 litres barrel with 1 year in barrel. Wants to express the purity of the wine instead of influence of wine making. 100% whole cluster, 50% new oak. Prefers limestone soil as it drains well.
