Production Details Grapes are harvested by hand at maturity and destemmed. Fermentation takes place in concrete tanks at approximately 25°C, with gentle daily pumping over. The temperature is raised after alcoholic fermentation to promote tannin polymerization, followed by approximately four weeks of post-fermentation maceration. The wine is aged predominantly in concrete vats, with a smaller portion in 600-litre barrels, and bottled after 12 months of maturation.
Tasting Notes Deep garnet; black cherry, blackberry and white pepper; full and rich with a fresh entry, silky tannins, red fruit, a persistent finish and slightly smoky notes.
