Tasting Notes
Intense and generous with notes of black fruit and then spicy touches. It is full and rich on the palate with a great freshness. Tannins are silky and elegant with a palate dominated by red fruits.
About
The vines are located on calcareous sandstone and gravelly clay terrace.
The de-stemmed grapes are fermented in concrete tanks.
At the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the temperature is increased to allow the polymerization of the tannins during the maceration phase. Post fermentation maceration lasts about four weeks.
The wine is mostly aged in concrete vats, with a small portion aged in 600 litre barrels for 12 months prior to bottling.
Ideal with...
Beef, game and roasted vegetables.
