Terroirs
Grapes are hand-harvested and sorted. Cold maceration last 7 days. 3 to 4 weeks of vatting time with twice daily punching of the cap. Pneumatic pressing is being used. Maturation is processed in French oak barrels that are composed of 40 % new oak for 12 months.
Tasting
Deep, almost black, colour. Good brilliance.
Highly aromatic bouquet which shows intense notes of blackcurrant, and game meat.
High tannins dominate the palate and are highlighted by well-defined acidity and chewiness which will surface after a few years of cellaring.
Food Matching
Excellent with lamb, game meat, strong cheeses.
