Généralités

Notes de dégustation (recommandé):Intense red/black in colour so characteristic of the Montepulciano grape variety. Concentrated black fruit and coffee nose, with more fruit perfumes in this vintage and less mocha. On the palate it is intense and chocolatey, with a chocolate cherry character supported by robust but supple tannins.

Vinification (fermentation)

Méthode:Only the best quality grapes were chosen for this blend, from primarily hand harvested fruit. At the winery they were de-stemmed, crushed and pumped to stainless steel tanks designed specifically for fermenting red wine. The wine was inoculated with selected yeast strains, and fermented at temperatures up to 34°C. The fermentation lasted for about 6 days during which time the wine was pumped over frequently in the first few days to increase extraction, but more gently towards the end of fermentation. Maceration on the skins was briefer in the 2007 vintage to lighten and soften the wine, making it more approachable and perfumed in its youth. After pressing, the wine was transferred to tank for malolactic fermentation.
