Lies 2021
Lies 2021 is one of Ormiale’s most singular cuvées — a wine shaped as much by time and patience as by fruit.
Built primarily from the lees of Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Sémillon, this wine undergoes sous-voile ageing, developing slowly beneath a protective veil of yeast. The result is a wine that leans into texture, savoury depth, and quiet complexity rather than primary fruit.
Aromatically, Lies opens with notes of dried apple skin, toasted grain, and gentle nuttiness, followed by hints of red berries and herbal lift. On the palate, it is dry and finely structured, with a subtle oxidative edge balanced by freshness and tension. Lees contact brings a soft, rounded mouthfeel, while the voile adds layers of umami and length without heaviness.
Unfiltered, naturally fermented, and handled with restraint, Lies 2021 is a contemplative wine, perfect for curious drinkers.
