Vinification 100% hand harvested selection of the grape, cold maceration.Pumping over twice a day. Aging during one year with 10% in barrels.
Tasting Notes This is showing some age with a savory array of earth-crusted dried berries and a soft, supple and mellow palate that fills the finish with blue fruit nicely. Drink or hold.
