Vinification: Grapes are harvested at their full phenolic maturation and are carefully selected by hand. They are fermented in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 25°C-26°C. The skins are macerated for at least 21 days and frequent pumping of the must over the skins is made. Wine is kept in 30hl and 50hl Slavonian oak barrels for 24 months and is refined for another 12 months in bottles.
Characteristic: Vivid ruby red colour with garnet hints due to the maturation process. Intense, harmonic, sophisticated, it has a wide and complex range of aromas: red berry fruits, blackberry, tobacco, leather, cloves. Perfectly harmonic, full bodied and persistent flavour, with an appropriate range of acidity.
To be combined with red meat and game. We recommend to uncork the bottle and decant it at least one hour before use.
