Gently pressed, centrifuged and then put through a full malolactic fermentation, the wine was then matured for 3 months with French oak staves.

Tasting notes

Vibrant, floral aroma of spiced plums, vanilla toffees and peppery aromas with a silky, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a long, tangy raspberry finish with elegant tannins.
