Soil:
Sandy, chalky and clay-like, highly permeable, with gravel content at the bottom.

Harvest:
By hand, in 20K plastic cartons, in order to preserve the grapes from breaking up or other damages harmful to the grape. Harvest is performed between March 25th and April 5th of each year.

Processing:
Fermentation is done in large oak vats: Continuous Remontage and Pissonier is performed, in order to obtain softer tannins and great color. The second fermentation is also performed in large oak vats. The wine is then transferred to French oak barrels, where it is aged for 6 months, in order to obtain more clarification, and improving its color.

Bottling:
Is done after a mild filtering over natural earth, in order to eliminate any impurity.

Tasting Notes:
Intense dark color, with a raspberry-like aroma and a complexity associated with this noble grape. Fresh, well-balanced, with gobs of dark fruit, great acidity, and mature tannins, unctuous and elegant. In the mouth it is profound and round, fleshy, with soft but potent tannins.
