This gives the characteristic notes of ripe fruits, such as plums and raisins. After the accurate hand harvest, grapes are pressed and the fermentation starts; the skins are left in the must for a long period to extract flavors and the characteristic ruby red color. Subsequently the wine is left in oak for about 3 or 4 months; this aging gives the pleasant notes of spices and vanilla. Harvest date: Beginning of October Cellaring: 4 years Alcohol content: 14% vol. Tasting notes: Intense purple color, tending towards amber with ageing. This wine has a very solid structure due to the elevated alcohol and the balance between soft tannins and acidity.
Staff review:
Rich dark fruits up front give way to a nice acidic finish. Screaming for grilled foods or a stew. Perfect for any weather!
