Tasting notes
Deep, dark purple colour. Attractive nose with plenty of ripe black fruit, dark chocolate, liquorice, rosemary, mint and ink. Round, powerful, concentrated and at the same time satin smooth body, with a spicy, noble finish.
Vinification
The grapes are selected and picked by hand. Cold soak at 8°C in oak vessels with a capacity of 3500 kg and 4500 kg and thermally insulated stainless steel fermenters of 5000 l each, for a period of 14 days. Fermentation takes place for 3 weeks in stainless steel tanks and vessels made from French, German and Austrian oak, followed by post-maceration of the fermented grapes for a week. Malolactic fermentation in oak barrels for a period of 4 weeks.
Ageing
The wine is aged for 12 months in used French oak barrels. Additional ageing in bottle for 6 to 12 months before the wine is released for sale.
Food pairing
Pairs well with red meats, traditional pork and game dishes, pasta and mature cheeses.
