Tasting note
Very dark colour with crimson highlights and a wonderfully complex and powerful bouquet of morello cherry, blackcurrant, and spices. The freshness and fruitiness on the nose carry over beautifully to the palate, which has a long, silky aftertaste.
Viticulture
A place bathed in sunshine from the start of the day... a stony soil with red clay... excellent southwest and southeast-facing sun exposure – in short, an ideal location for growing Malbec! The 63 hectares of vines grow on slopes with clay soil at an altitude of 300 meters – one of the highest vineyards in the appellation.
Vinification
The wine is left for a long time on the skins, and fermentation is rigorously temperature-controlled. It is aged for 10-12 months in oak barrels (1/3 news, 1/3 one year old, 1/3 two years old)
Food Match
Perfect on a roasted meat like T-bone, it goes also very well with strong French cheeses and dark chocolate.
