Harvest manually in small plastic bins. Double sorting of the grape cluster and individual grapes. Manual de-stemming to preserve the grain as whole as possible.
The destemmed grapes are vatted in small stainless-steel tanks. A pre-fermentation cold maceration is carried out for 5 days to extract the delicate primary aromas—alcoholic fermentation with selected yeasts. Malolactic fermentation.

Deep ruby red color, with violet hues. Elegant and delicate. Intense aromas of blackberries, blue flowers, spices, and freshly cut red fruit. The wine is well balanced with good structure, subtle notes of vanilla and coconut, and a velvety and juicy palate - long and fresh lingering.
Ideal with baked meats and baked pork with plums.
Ready to drink but will develop favourably in bottle for up to 6 years.
