PRODUCTION The grapes were harvested slightly overripe, in order to enhance their phenolic potential. After pressing, fermentation took place in steel tanks at a temperature not exceeding 26 °C. The maceration, managed with soft pumping over and delèstage to achieve a gradual and balanced extraction, was continued for approx. 15 days. After racking, the wine passed directly into mainly French oak barrels, where it underwent malolactic fermentation, remaining there for 15 months before being bottled. A further period of 24 months of bottle aging followed.
TASTING NOTES COLOR: Dark ruby red BOUQUET: Prolonged and complex succession of scents; spicy, minty, toasted, china, ink, jam, dried plums, cherries in alcohol TASTE:Wine of great structure, balance, softness, elegance and persistence.
