Production method
The harvest of the grapes takes place at the optimal moment of full ripeness, followed by a process of destemming and maceration which lasts for approximately twenty days. Subsequently, we move on to the pneumatic pressing and mixing phase. The wine is then left to mature for at least 12 months in French oak barrels.
Alcohol content

Tasting notes
Ruby red colour. On the nose, notes of black and red fruit emerge, such as blackcurrant and blackberry, enriched by pleasant floral and spicy accents. In the mouth it manifests itself with a fleshy and generous consistency, highlighting an appetizing and creamy structure from the beginning. The roundness of the wine finds a balance in the fresh acidity of the fruit, while maintaining an extremely delicate tannic texture.
Possible combinations
Perfect with structured first courses or second courses based on red meat or game, even cooked for a long time, or with medium-aged cheeses.
