The grapes grow on marl soils containing clay and silica.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness and pressed at the winery. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine matures for 16 months in Slavonian oak barrels and 228 L barriques, followed by a further six months in bottle in the winery’s cellars.

Tasting profile

The nose has fresh, rich fruit aromas. The palate is soft and elegant, with velvety tannins and a long finish.
