Vinification
After a parcel selection of the vinyard, the grapes are harvested when perfectly ripe then destemmed and trod. Long maceration in stainless steel vats under temperature control (1 month approximately).
Dégustation
With a lovely shimmering ruby, the mouth is fruity (red fruits, soft spices) and has great finesse. Accompaniment advice: Mountain cured meats, barbecues and cheeses. Serve at around 18°c.
