The grapes are harvested by hand with a selection of the best grapes.

Winemaking
The grapes are partial destemmed, slighty crushed and placed in a fermentation concrete tank. Long vatting time at controlled temperature from 25 days, with pumping-over to obtain a reasoned extraction of tannins.
Ageing
Maturing is done during 12 months on oak casks (45 hl) for 75 % and in tanks for 25%.

Reviews
"It exudes the aromas of potpourri and rosewood. A unique aromatic profile precedes a fleshy and sweet fruitiness on the palate, full and velvety. A wine with rich tannins and a savory sap."
