This altitude gives the possibility of day and night temperature differences during late August and early September, namely during the harvest period. This ensures the grapes to retain their acidity while reaching sugar and phenolic maturity.
WINEMAKING

TASTING NOTES
Deep dark cherry red color. The nose has rich aroma of sweet, ripe cassis and blackberry. On the palate it is firm, dense with chewy sweet tannins filled out with pure fruit. The fruit shines through the oak influence. A full-bodied, balanced wine with a long finish.
