Nose
Elegant and intense on the nose, an attack of ripe red fruit aromas with fresh spice coming through, like thyme and paprika.
Palate
On the palate, fresh and lively, yet firm. Polished tannins, the final and perfect touch to this harmonious wine.
Winemaking
A manual harvest is carried out in small 17-kilo
boxes. Then, grapes are carefully set on a double selection table. After destemming, grapes are placed in 52-hectoliter cement tanks by gravity. Vinification starts with a cold maceration process for 3 days, and continues with an alcoholic fermentation with regular pigeages to enhance extraction at temperatures under strict controls. Finally, a long maceration process at around 28oC allows the wine to express its full potential.
Aging
In French oak barrels for 12 months (1/3 of the
barrels are new, 1/3 are second use, and 1/3 are
third use barrels).
