Winemaking
The grapes are chosen from selected vineyard parcels and are manually harvested when in optimum ripeness. They are transported to cellars, where a selection belt conducts a second selection.
Over three days, a pre-fermentation maceration is conducted at a controlled temperature of 4° C, after which selected yeasts are added. Fermented in stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature between 25° C and 28° C. Malolactic fermentation in tank. The wine is aged in new French oak barrels for 6 months.

Tasting note
An interesting red color with violet hues, a complex aroma of chocolate and black fruits, and spicy notes. In mouth, the Syrah contributes a fresh, slightly acidic taste, while the Tannat brings a powerful structure, rounded by its aging in oak barrels. A wonderful pairing for lamb and spicy dishes.
Alcohol
13,5%
