Description
"Wonderfully ripe, warm and inviting, the fragrant bouquet shows dark plum, dried cherry, vanilla, cocoa and cake spice aromas, followed by a sumptuous palate that is filled with rich fruit intensity and silky texture. It is gorgeously flavoursome and satisfying with a lengthy velvety finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019
Full-bodied red wine with rich aromas of red cherries, plums and blackberries and spicy notes of black pepper. Remarkable red fruit presence on the mid-palate, soft tannins and medium-long finish. Balanced, excellent acidity, smooth and elegant in the mouth with a subtle hint of toastiness. Great ageing potential.
Sourced from 110 hectares, single estate, 25-30-year-old trellised vines, 700-800 metres altitude organic & sustainable farming methods, nutrient-poor and limestone-rich soil, scarce rainfall.
The fruit for this wine was night harvested with optimal maturity starting mid-September. Maceration for 3 weeks, fermentation with gradual increase in temperature up to 29 º C. to obtain good colour and then a gradual decrease to 23 º C. to preserve the primary aroma of the fruit. AGed for 6 months in American fine grain medium-toasted oak casks (300 L).
Food Pairing: Enjoy this award-winning wine simply by itself or accompanied by tapas, roasted, grilled or fried dishes, barbecued or grilled red meats, cured meats (ham, chorizo, etc.) and semi and fully matured cheeses.
