Nose

The nose is earthy, leathery, some spicy note of pepper.

Palate

The month-feel is rich and soft with a finish of black cherry. The wine is very elegant and will pair with a lot winter dishes.

Winemaking

The grapes were gently de-stemmed, cold macerated and fermented in a one-ton bin. They were punched down over the course of fermentation to extract as much fruit as possible. The wine was then pressed into barrels for malolactic fermentation and aged 26 months in French oak.

Appearance

The color is intense black, showing a nice concentration.
