Nose

It features pleasant notes that are reminiscent of liquorice, spices, pink pepper and a little bit of black fruit, which are perfectly blended thanks to its barrel aging process

Palate

It is compact and robust in the mouth, as well as highly concentrated and smooth. A highly acid and firm wine of balanced texture and great roundness, featuring a long and persistent finish, black fruit and a mildly spicy aftertaste.

Harvest

2018

Winemaking

The grapes are manually harvested in 18 to 20-kilogram boxes, followed by the bunch selection and stalking processes, and, subsequently, berry selection. The grape juice is cold macerated at a temperature ranging between 8 and 10 °C for five to seven days. After that, it is fermented in small stainless steel tanks, undergoing various extractions, such as plunging and rack and return (délestage). Once maceration is completed, wine is aged for 10 months in oak barrels, where it goes through malolactic fermentation. The wine is then filtered and bottled, and then stowed in the wine cellar for at least six months before it enters the market.

Food Pairing
