Aroma

intriguing at the nose, recalls the scents of the mediterranean scrub such as myrtle, euphorbia and rosemary. Crispy red berry fruits interwave with a nice mineralilty and delicate balsamic notes. A fine tanning structure sustains the finale in the name of a great drinkability.

Espresso, mocha, sweet grilled herbs and plums wrap around the palate in this deep, inviting wine. It is a complex yet fresh wine and it is very drinkable.

Vinification

temperature-controlled spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The vinification of the grapes from the various plots of our vineyards takes place separately in open tapered steel vats. Each plot is kept separate throughout the entire ageing process, up to the moment of the blend composition. Maceration up to 21 days depending on variety. Long contact with lees to drastically reduce the use of sulphites.

Aging

14 months 50% in steel and the remaining 50% in French oak barriques and tonneaux, 30% of which new and 70% of second or third passage. Further 12 months of bottle ageing. No fining or filtering.
