Fragrance

The wine has a fruity bouquet with hints of cherry, currant, and mixed berries. It has also some floral notes.

Winemaking method

After the harvest, the grapes are separated into two portions. The first one follows a drying process to intensify the fruity notes and the natural concentration of sugar in each grape. The second portion starts the alcoholic fermentation.

Maturation

The second portion of grapes ages in oak barrels where malolactic fermentation occurs. During this process, the first portion of grapes (after the drying process) is blended with the second. A second fermentation takes place until springtime. The wine is then ready to be bottled.
