- Richly concentrated flavours of ripe red fruits are layered with balsamic oak notes and hints of violet. The palate is beautifully balanced with ripe, rounded tannins and a long, fresh finish.
Each parcel was vinified separately in stainless steel vats under controlled temperatures with periodic pumping. Following malolactic conversion, the wines were transferred to 225-litre French oak barrels, of which 26% were new and 74% were used barrels for around 16 months.

Winery | The grapes for this wine come from a certified organic vineyard. The vines are planted at altitudes ranging between 80 and 400 metres on south and west-facing slopes, which maximises exposure to the sun and assists the grapes’ ripening potential. The landscape is characterised by the terraces that make up the vineyards. The soils comprise schist, a slate-like metamorphic rock rich in nutrients and offer useful water retention properties. The vines are pruned according to the Double Cordon system and are harvested at optimal maturity. |
