Vinification
Destemming and crushing; alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature (28-30°C) on the skins for a total of around 14-16 days, with targeted racking and returning maximizing the extraction of colour, aroma and tannic structure. Following the malolactic fermentation, the wine is transferred into French and Slavonian oak for ageing.
Tasting notes
A rich wine with a defined mineral character. Fruit driven with cherry, raspberry and licorice.
A finely balanced and well-structured wine with light tannins that resolve into a medium finish.
