- This red wine is supple, elegant, and complex, with fruity aromas including cherry, raspberry, sweet quince, dried figs, and hints of nutmeg, clove, and black pepper. It has silky tannins and ripe, red-berried flavours, leading to a long, smooth finish. The grapes were harvested after an excellent growing season, with dry weather allowing the grapes to reach excellent maturity and concentration. The large canopy helped to retain acidity levels, resulting in 2021 wines that exhibit lovely purity of fruit and balance.
The Limniona grapes were hand-picked and carefully sorted. Whole bunch fermentation took place with selected yeasts lasting five days before being transferred to a pneumatic press for gentle pressing. The malolactic conversion took place to soften and round out the palate. The wine was aged in French oak barriques (90%) and American oak barriques (10%), mostly of second use for 12 months, before being bottle-aged for 12 months.
