Tasting notes
Appearance: from garnet red to mahogany according to the age.
Nose: powerful, shifting between black fruit and red berries, giving it a lovely freshness, subtly complemented by notes of cocoa.
Palate: sumptuous balance between the solar strength of the wine and the fineness of its tannins. It has a great persistency with sweetness which develops greedily.
Recommended food pairing: chocolate cakes and desserts.
Serving temperature: 12°C.
Ageing potential: over 5 years.
Harvest:
The crop is hand-harvested when grapes are very ripe.
Soil:
Terraced vineyards on old mica-schist from the Primary era.
Vinification:
The grapes are destemmed and crushed. The maceration is long with an addition of alcohol to favour the extraction of aromas and tannins
