Vinification
Winemaking also uses modern thermoregulation techniques during fermentation.
Wine aging
For this cuvée, 60% of the vintage is aged in one-wine oak barrels and 40% is aged in cement vats. The goal is to obtain a beautiful fruit without the wood predominating on the latter and supple tannins bringing a generous length to the wine.

Tasting notes
In the glass you will be surprised by its bright cherry color with magnificent reflections and a beautiful intensity. On the nose, you will find notes of black fruits and spices (pepper, liquorice). The mouth is ample, powerful in harmony with the tannins of the wood.
