VINIFICATION: The grapes are carefully destemmed before alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Prolonged maceration with the skins lasts
up to 2 days to extract colour, aroma and density in the mouth. Malolactic fermentation takes place in new barrels and stainless steel tanks, depending on the parcels and
their origin.
COLOUR: Deep and luminous red.
BOUQUET: A bouquet with beautiful notes of toasted wood and spices, combined with liquorice-based candied red fruits.
FLAVOUR: Full-bodied on the palate with a background of ripe fruit and elegant, soft tannins. A long silky aftertaste.
AGEING: Once the process is complete, the wines are aged in barrels and racked every 6 months. For 12 months they are aged in French (6%) and American (4%) oak
barrels. Maturation in bottles for at least one year before marketing.
