"A heroic, dense and muscular rendition of the Hoffmann’s sun drenched Eben-Ezer earths. Laced together from the two oldest sections within the Hoffmann families vineyard, planted on their own roots in 1927 (0.31 Hectare) & the oldest vines between 1888 & 1912 (0.775 Hectare) with a thimble from the neighbouring Eric’s Corner planted in 1996 (0.39 Hectare). These 19 Burgundian Pièces were carefully assembled and bottled amidst the spring of 2020 after enduring their 81 week elevage. Bottles were filled without filtration, fining or sparging (the removal of naturally occurring oxygen & C02) and all transfer’s were completed via gravity prior to bottling. Yields ranged between 21 & 27 hectolitres per hectare. 5216 bottles were filled. Label: Andy’s Porpoise, printed 2017. Rear – Andy’s bird, sewn 2019."
