WINEMAKING
Pergola trellising with 3,200 vines/ha yielding 4.5 tons/acre. 2 days of cold
maceration between 8 and 10 degrees Celcius, 7 days of alcoholic fermentation
and 2 days of post-fermentation maceration makes for a total of 11 days skin
contact. 8 months in stainless steel tanks with 15% of the wine aged in secondfill French oak barrels during that time. Minimum of 3 months in bottle before
release. Unfined and unfiltered. Natural cold stabilization in winter.
TASTING NOTES
Intense color with hints of violet and ruby tones. The bouquet highlights a
lush fruitiness, reminiscent of black fruits like cassis and ripe plums. The
small percentage aged in French oak brings a hint of vanilla and chocolate
notes. On the palate we find it ample and velvety with a pleasant acidity
uplifting its freshness and finish. The wine reflects the characteristic features
of the variety through its generous fruitiness, and of the vintage through its
concentration and softness. Ideal to serve with red meats or pasta with strong
sauces and venison. Suitable for vegans. Certified Organic Wine.
