Vinification
The vinification follows strict careful selection of the best grapes, with a long, slow fermentation over three or four weeks. The wines are then matured in vats and oak barrels for a minimum of 24 months before bottling at the domaine.
Tasting Notes
A solid, creamy, dense and fruity red with cherries, creamy raspberries, warm spices and a touch of roasted meat. Full-bodied with creamy tannins. A seductive core of crushed red fruit and spices mingles on the palate and in the generous finish.
