Production notes
Manual harvest in small boxes to preserve the condition of the fruit. Cold maceration for 4-5 days, followed by careful mixing and, if necessary, punching down and pumping over in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature. Aging 12 months in French oak barrels, 50% new barrels and 50% 1 year barrels.
Tasting notes
Sustained and brilliant garnet color with purple undertones. The complex, fruity and persistent nose reveals aromas of blackberries and sour cherries. The 2018 palate is supple and balanced with notes of blackcurrant jam and cocoa. This wine will go perfectly with grilled or roasted red meats, white meats or poultry.
