Notes: The nose recalls leather and tobacco. In the mouth it is robust and pulpy, on tasting it reveals an important tannic texture that will tend to soften with evolution and a full taste played on fruity and spicy notes that persist in the long finish.
Vinification & Aging: Manual harvest of the grapes in the first half of October. Destemming, fermentation and maceration follow in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 28°. Aging for 30 months in new oak barrels, followed by aging in the bottle for 24 months.
