Product Description:
This wine presents with a dense, violet core and a vibrant ruby red rim. Aromas of dark ripe plums, black cherries, violets and baking spices stream from the glass. These play with the barrel-aged aromas of fresh vanilla pods, dark cocoa and lightly toasted oak. On the palate, it shows wonderful fruit intensity and sweetness in the best sense. It has a lively acidity and the tannins are pleasantly mouth-filling. A bold wine, produced in small quantities.

Vinifikation The grapes were filled into small shallow containers and cooled overnight in a cold room at 6 °C. The next day, they were destemmed before being passed over a sorting table to remove any leaves and stems. The next day, they were destemmed and then freed from all leaves and stems on a sorting table before being partly pressed directly into small concrete fermenters. A 4-day cold maceration followed, after which the tanks began to ferment naturally. Twice daily, punch-downs or open pump-overs were carried out for extraction until fermentation was complete. Afterwards, the free-run wine was drawn off before pressing. The wine was transferred to barrels for malolactic fermentation, after which it was racked off its lees and returned to barrels for further maturation. The wines matured for a total of 22 months in 67% new French oak barrels, with only minimal rackings during maturation. The wine was bottled in February 2024 unfiltered and with a light fining.
