About this wine

Vinification

Grapes are harvested from mid-September to mid-October. The juice ferments in stainless steel tanks, which preserves its natural freshness.

Ageing

The wine rests for at least 6 months in French oak vessels, which add complexity and depth. This gives a harmonious structure and allows the wine to develop well in bottle over time. A natural sediment may form at the bottom of the bottle, which is normal for a wine of this style.

Tasting profile

Bright and spirited, with an elegant style and lively character. The aroma is layered. The palate is soft and sensual, with notes of red berries and ripe fruit. The structure is harmonious.
