About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes are organically grown in a low-yield vineyard with an ideal aspect in Controguerra.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand between 10 and 20 October. Vinification takes place entirely in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks and includes malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

The wine rests in bottle for at least six months after malolactic fermentation.

Tasting profile

The aroma is layered. The flavour is intense and enjoyable, opening gradually.

Serving and pairing

Pairs well with grilled meat, cured meats, cheeses, legume dishes, lasagne, pizza and pasta.
