Vinification: Crushing and destemming, maceration with skins for about 10 days at a maximum temperature of 29-31°C. After racking, the wine is aged in oak barrels for about 18 months. It completes maturation in stainless steel before bottling without filtration and ageing in bottles laid down for at least 6 months.
Tasting Note: It is intensely ruby-red wine with barely perceptible orange reflections. It has an intense, complex, ethereal aroma with hints of red fruits still well perceptible. It has a full, warm flavour with tannins harmoniously blended in a delicate and round taste.
