This blend is first created when we harvest both varieties at about the same time, around the second week of April. The fermentation process is then realized using the microvinification technique, which lets the whole of the grapes macerate within brand new French oak barrels for 60 days. Following the end of the fermentation process, this wine is aged for another 18 months in its barrel. TASTING NOTES Complex and elegant, this blend shows off deep red ruby color with crimson glints. The intense aromatic character ranges from mineral to ripe fruits (cherries, strawberries and plum), allied to soft subtle notes of vanilla and tobacco. The flavors displayed in the mouth are complex and incredibly soft and balanced. Its singular structure promises a lengthy aging potential. DOWNLOAD TECHNICAL INFORMATION
