The Wine

Vinification
Hand-harvested and scrupulously sorted, the wine is fermented in open stainless steel tanks for around three weeks, then matured in oak barrels, with about 5% new oak, for 15-16 months

Tasting notes
To the eye, the wine is a deep, sparkling purple.
On the nose, small red fruits dominate, notably raspberries and sour cherries.
On the palate, the wine is supple because of round tannins and immediately drinkable, with a bright freshness.

Drinking tips
Its light, silky texture goes perfectly with simpler dishes.
Serve at around 16C-17C. Will age well for 2-8 years.
