Vinification & Aging
Grapes are harvested in September. Gentle crushing, 19 days maceration, spontaneous fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures.
Aged for 8 months in used 300L French oak barrels.
Ecosystems
The vineyards cover 25 hectares of land, with new plantings added every year. They are located at an altitude of 400 - 600 m and are influenced by the warm Mediterranean climate and the considerable rainfall (620 mm / year, on average). The surrounding hills, the crystal gypsum, limestone and quartz rich soils, together with the uninterrupted exposure to the winds of the valley, modify the local mesoclimate.
Tasting Notes
This medium-bodied red sees nineteen days maceration followed by eight months in used French oak. Vibrant and pure with cherry and raspberry fruit, stony minerality, and heady spice. Crunchy and quenching wine.
