WHAT THE WINEMAKERS ARE SAYING
After a classic start to the year followed by a mixed summer, a cold wind settled in early September accompanied by a generous sun, which allowed the grapes to ripen quickly. The harvest took place at the end of September in order to harvest grapes at full maturity. Aging in oak barrels for 16 months.
Deep ruby red. Very fresh aromas of blackcurrant on chocolate notes and aromas of spices and vanilla. Well balanced and generous. Beautiful fruit. Beautiful material. Well-integrated oak and elegant tannins. Good persistence.
