TASTING NOTES

Clear, deep violet red wine, with aromas of blackberry, black cherry, spices and floral notes. Structured, balance and full-bodied, with a long and fresh finish.

VITICULTURE

The vineyards are planted on red clay soils with underlying brown or crystalline limestone, with some schist outcrops. They thrive under a Mediterranean climate, with large thermal fluctuations and hot, dry Summers.

After careful canopy management during the growing season, the grapes were hand-picked and transported to the winery in boxes.

WINEMAKING

After each grape variety was received, the grapes are destemmed and crushed, underwent pre-fermentation maceration. Fermentation itself was carried out in “Lagares” and stainless steel vats with temperature control.

AGEING

After undergoing malolactic fermentation, part of the wine spent 12 months in a 2nd and 3rd year old French and American oak barrels. Once bottled, the wine was then aged for a further 2 months in our cellar. In order to maintain its unique characteristics, this wine has not been stabilised and may create sediments naturally.

MOMENTS

A wine for everyday life, for the demanding consumer.
