Vinification: Hand-picked with rigorous sorting. Grapes crushed and destemmed, fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature. Long vatting with numerous pumping over and delestage for a better extraction of colour and tannins (4 to 6 weeks). Blending after malolactic fermentation, ageing in barrels (35%) and concrete vats (65%) allowing micro-oxygenation of the wine for its development. Light filtration and bottling in June 2017.
Tasting : This wine has a beautiful ruby red colour, it is powerful and generous with fine and melted tannins, exhaling aromas of red fruits and humus enhanced by woody notes. It will be the ideal companion of red meats, game and cheeses of character. To be consumed from the 3rd or 4th year, it can be kept for 8 to 10 years. To taste between 18 and 20°C.
