Introductory notes

Grapevines need around 20 years to reach maturity. Once they reach this age, they start sending more nutrients to the fruits than the foliage, enhancing the fruit quality. However, the yield decreases for grapevines that live more than 20 years. Though fewer fruits benefit from better sunlight exposure and nutrient distribution. As grapevines mature, their roots spread deep into the soil, and they can absorb previously inaccessible nutrients. This process leads to a more complex flavor profile in the wine.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance
    Deep ruby.
  • Nose
    The aroma is incredibly rich and complex. You can enjoy nuances of black currant, black cherry, black plum, blackberry, black currant, fig, sour cherry, complemented by oak-aged notes of cedar, licorice, nutmeg, chocolate, coffee, cardamom, and vanilla. There are hints of whipped cream and custard pudding from malolactic fermentation, along with aromas of leather, earth, prune, and caramel derived from bottle aging.
  • Palate
    The balance between moderate acidity and fine tannins is exquisite, resulting in a very elegant wine. It has a dry mouthfeel and an excellent balance of flavors (black cherry, blackberry) and tannins.
  • Food pairing
    This wine pairs well with black pork, lamb, aged cheeses, smoked cheeses, and smoked sausages.
