B-Liv Organic Red Blend 2018 (Chile)

Description

Cherry, Oak, Spice

Deep ruby colour. Aromas of ripe red fruit like cherries, along with spicy notes like white pepper and dill. This medium-bodied wine is juicy with delicious acidity and a very silky texture. It has good persistence in the aftertaste.

This wine is a blend 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Carmenère & 27% Syrah.

Once in the winery, the grapes from each variety were separately processed. The clusters were destemmed and then the grapes were gently crushed and put into stainless steel tanks where the pre-fermentative maceration occurred for 3 days at 12°C. Next, the alcoholic fermentation took place for 7-10 days at a temperature no higher than 26°C in order to gently extract the tannins during the fermentation period. Then each wine was aged separately until the moment of mixing. Finally, the wine had 20% contact with French Oak and the other 80% had contact with stainless steel to preserve all the primary fruit.
