Visual

Deep ruby red.

Palate

Entry on the palate is smooth and mouth-filling, followed by elegant flavors with vibrant tannins that express the typical energy of the vineyards of origin. The finish is long, flavorful, and persistent echoing notes of white pepper, cocoa powder, and flowers.

Nose

Expressive on the nose with fresh notes of red fruit that lead over to floral hints of mallow and lavender. The rich bouquet is accented by sweet notes of white chocolate that give rise to piquant spicy aromas. 

Winemaking

Upon arrival in the cellar, the grapes were destemmed, and gently crushed. The must was transferred into stainless steel tanks, where alcoholic fermentation occurred in about one week’s time. Very gentle pump overs and délestage techniques were performed during maceration on the skins for an intense extraction while preserving elegant and supple tannins. Malolactic fermentation, which occurred spontaneously, was completed by the end of the year. The wine was then blended and went into French and Hungarian oak barriques for approximately one year and a further twelve-month period of bottle aging before being released.
