Harvest
Harvesting is performed when grapes reach a good maturity.
Vinification
The grapes are entirely destemmed. Vatting lasts around 2 weeks that provides a good tannic structure to the wine, allows its ageing and guarantees a good stability.
Maturing
The wine is aged in vats. Pumping over allows the wine to be clarified.
Tasting

Nose: aromas of red fruits (mainly morello cherries) and spices (liquorice, grey pepper).
