TASTING NOTES
Colour : Bright Ruby
Nose: A riot of warm notes of wild fruits and mulberries, peony, cola, tanned tobacco and sweet spices.
Palate: Sinuous mouth and tannin tapered, anticipate a long finish on smoky tones.
VINIFICATION
Grapes are hand-picked and carefully selected from the estate’s best vineyards, which are found at an altitude between 180 and 200 meters (590-600 feet). The grapes are released by gravity into tanks, each varietal vinified separately. Fermentation and maceration take place in stainless steel tanks for roughly 25- 30 days at a controlled temperature never exceeding 28/30° C. The wine is then transferred to 225-liter French oak barrels – half of which are new – to complete malolactic fermentation. Aging takes place in barrel, then in bottle before being released to the market.
