Tasting notes
Deep ruby in colour. The nose shows expressive notes of red fruits in perfect harmony with delicate
floral aromas. The palate starts in an engaging way, evolving into a wine of excellent volume that
poses a solid structure and silky tannins. The finish is fresh, balanced and persistent.
Serve at a temperature between 16 to 18 degrees celcius.
Vinification
Grapes are taken to the winery in 22 kg boxes. After a rigorous selection, the stalks are removed and
the grapes are crushed and transferred to stainless steel vats. The alcoholic fermentation takes place
at controlled temperature for 7 days.
