Vinification details: 

The grapes used in the creation of this wine were selected from parcels of vines 30 years old, with less than 6 tons per hectare harvested. After the selection, destemming and crushing of the grapes, the juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks for two weeks at 29°C. Alcoholic fermentation began after malolactic fermentation, due to which the wine became velvety, with soft tannins. A part of this wine was aged in oak barrels for 5 months, to get the required softness and the right depth of flavors.

Tasting notes:

Dark purple, with great aromas based on intense ripe cherries notes. Jammy taste, of cherry and red fruit. A well-rounded and full-bodied wine, with soft, velvety tannins, and a very good
bottle-aging potential.

Food pairing:

Great with beef and pork dishes. Try it with sesame crusted pork tenderloin and oven-baked fingerling potatoes.

Serving:

This wine is best served at a temperature of 18-20°C.
