Vinification & Ageing: Soft pressing of the grapes with stems then left to rest at low temperature to assist decantation. A single starter from the same grapes is prepared and combined with the pressed must, which has been transferred to our concrete tanks to start a naturally spontaneous, slow fermentation at no more than 18°C lasting 20+ days. The wine is then left to rest in cement vats on fine lees for 9 months, before being transferred to new french oak 500lt barrels for 18 months before bottling and resting for 12 months before release.

On the palate it expresses sapidity and volume with evolving tannins that give backbone and fullness of drinkability. The glass flows fluidly leaving an interesting balsamic note on the aftertaste which prolongs the persistence and leaves the oral cavity ready for first courses based on meat sauce or medium-cooked meat second courses.
