Tasting notes

Deep ruby color. Intense and perfumed aroma, with mixed notes of black and red fruit, hints of wild flowers, and a spicy touch. Concentrated, with complex and velvety tannins and a present, but very well-integrated acidity, it is a wine with great aging potential. Its elegance and persistence define its long finish.

Vinification

After manual harvesting of selected plots, the grapes were cooled to 5ºC, followed by total destemming and gentle crushing. The next step was pre-fermentative maceration, followed by alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperature, ending with a long post-fermentative maceration. The two grape varieties that make up the blend were vinified and aged separately.
