50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot.
After careful selection in the vineyard, the grapes undergo soft crushing and destalking before fermenting in 50 hl temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Maceration continues for 25 days and, upon completion of malo-lactic fermentation, which takes place in steel, the wine is transferred to barriques made of French oak from the forests of Allier and Nevers. After ageing in wood for 14 months, blending takes place in a single container to obtain a mass with even quality and characteristics. The final blend is bottled and ages in glass a minimum of 6 months.
Color: Deep red, intense, almost impenetrable, with rich tones. Perfume: Very intense, once uncorked red berry fruit, spicy and smoky notes come out typical of the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Flavor: Good structure, powerful and persistent, lively and respon- sive tannin, well contrasted by the right feeling of acidity that cools down the long finish.
The wine is very well suited for long aging and per- fectly accompanies dishes of red meat.
