Vinification

The de-stemmed grapes are fermented by the yeasts naturally present on the grapes, with a long maceration of the wine with the skins. After devatting, the wine is decanted to barrels for the malolactic fermentation. About a year later, it is poured into a steel tank. No clarification but just static decanting before the bottling.

Estimated Aging Capacity

At least 8/10 years

Tasting Notes

A wine with a deep purplish red color. To the nose it expresses notes of cherry and spices that blend with the intriguing salty side of black Corinth for an enveloping olfactory complexity. The taste is elegant and refined, with a typical freshness and final sapidity.
