- TASTING NOTE: The wine presents a bright ruby color with prominent cherry aromas, complemented by a strong presence of spice and dried herbs. On the palate, it is dry and medium-bodied, with soft tannins and balanced finish.
- ABOUT THE WINE: This wine is made from approximately 35-year-old, Guyot-trained vines rooted in predominantly clayey-calcareous soil. The grapes are de-stemmed and gently pressed, with fermentation occurring in stainless steel tanks at temperatures between 25-31°C to ensure optimal extraction. The wine is matured in stainless steel tanks and further refined in the bottle before release.
