Description
The harvest usually starts at the end of September. Grapes are selected and handpicked for optimum vinification and evolution: The grapes are destemmed and pressed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and lasts about 15/20 days. Temperature is controlled during the whole phase and remains between 20° and 24° C. Once the fermentation is finished, the wine is run off its skins, and goes into stainless steel tanks for a few months remaining on its lees until bottling.
Tasting note
Deep red in colour, with purple hints. On the nose intense notes of sweet cherries and ripe fruit are combined with a touch of bitter almonds. On the palate it is full bodied, quite intense with round tannins and persistent aftertaste.
