Production notes
Manual harvest and sort the grapes. Vinification by regular punching down and control of fermentation temperatures in closed stainless steel vats for nearly three weeks. Aging for 36 months in oak barrels. 50% new wood.
Tasting notes
Dark ruby red color. Spices, red berries and delicate aromas of wood. Wine with round and melted tanins. Aromas of raspberries, blackberries and vanilla. Harmony between an imperceptible acidity and tanins giving it a good ageing potential, but softened by a prolonged ripening in wood. Pairings of game, red meats and cheeses. Serve at 16-18 ° C.
