The birdsong rings out like a signal to all at the first and last light of day. It is life that awakens and then fades away, ceaselessly. Inspired by a poem by the iconic Max Rouquette, ‘Les oiseaux de l’aube’ (The Birds of Dawn) highlights the fragility of this song of the Earth, ever ready to fall silent like a stone at the bottom of the water. This cuvée captures that elusive Nature, immortalised at its finest, fresh and fleeting.
