Tasting NotesIt has an intense ruby red colour with rich violet hues. The bouquet offers an intense range of scents of a varietal nature: from red roses to the fruitiness of raspberries, sour black cherries and blackberries and red plum.
-
PairingA noble but not over-austere wine that goes well with boiled and roasted meats.
-
CellaringOnce the malolactic fermentation took place, the wine ages for 12 months in 25 HL barrels.
