Best grapes from best plots undergo fermentation separately, then the wines are blended and spend 24 months in 225 l new French and American oak barrels, plus at least 6 years more of bottle ageing before release.
There is no stabilization process in this wine, some precipitation may therefore occur. Minimum intervention to let the wine develop and evolve gradually and harmoniously.
We also make big formats like Magnum, Doble Magnum, Jeroboams, etc.
To the eye it has an intense ruby-garnet colour due to its ageing process.
On the nose it shows red and black jammy fruits notes, wrapped with hints of vanilla, black pepper, bell pepper, tobacco and dark chocolate notes.
On the palate, the wine is round, with an excellent balance of body and acidity, firm-yet- soft tannins, with very long finish and pronounce flavour intensity, reminiscent of black berries, dark cherries, black plums, black currants, vanilla, black pepper and cocoa.
