Harvest
Hand picked, in crates, between the last week of september and the first of october.
Vinification
The talent of a wine that comes from the respect and accuracy of a process.
The grapes are placed directly in small crates and left to rest briefly before vinification.
After crushing the must is left to macerate to extract colour and polyphenolic substances.
Refinement
After racking, the wine is left in tonneau which follows a period in bottles, fundamental for maturation.
TASTING NOTES
Colour: Beautiful, dark ruby colour, that tends to become garnet around the edges with ageing. Scent: The generous bouquet evokes sensations of plum jam and pleasant balsamic notes. Flavour: It’s abundant and deep to the palate, juicy and dripping with blackberries, cherries and plum jam.
In the mouth the tannins are full-bodied but velvety and the intense fruity flavours create a layered structure interspersed with a pleasantness that you will not forget so easily.
Combination
Ideally suited to elaborate, succulent, tasty dishes of stews, fillets, polenta with game and mature cheeses.
