VINIFICATION AND AGEING
Following crushing and destalking, the juice undergoes a fermentation and maceration process in steel tanks lasting 8-12 days, allowing for extraction of a considerable amount of colour and polyphenolics. Following malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels.

TASTING NOTES
colour: deep, bright with hints of purple.
bouquet: Scents of jammy sour cherry and spices come through on the nose with slight herbaceous and resin notes.
flavour: Dense and fruity, providing a lovely contrast to the energetic freshness. Tannins are soft and the finish long and persistent.
