Winemaking
After a pre-fermentation maceration of two or three days at 16 ° C, the grapes are put in destemmed vats. Fermentation takes place between 25 and 28 ° C depending on the potential of the harvest and the actions envisaged on the marc hat. A unique pneumatic pigeage system allows the hat to be immersed smoothly. Some of these wines will undergo malolactic fermentation in oak barrels. The barrels made of wood assembly are carefully cared for during the 11 months of ageing.
Food & Wine Pairings
This wine reveals a deep dark red with purple reflections. The nose is fine, open to scents of scrubland, blackcurrant, blond tobacco and undergrowth. In the mouth, the tannins yet well present are forgotten and let flexibility and roundness bring us to the finish.
Perfect to pair with red meat, game, or a dish in sauce.
