14% vol.

Winemaking: fermented and matured for 10 months in raw concrete tanks, then aged for 15 months in large 500-litre French oak barrels.

Tasting notes: intense, dark garnet colour with purple highlights.

Intense on the nose, with notes of red fruit combined with spicy, balsamic touches of black pepper and liquorice. Its barrel ageing gives it subtle notes of toast.

On the palate, the powerful attack presents a structured wine with plenty of character. Spicy, savoury and easy-drinking (black and red fruit), with flavoursome tannins and a good acidity. Long, persistent finish.

As the wine has not undergone aggressive filtration, natural sediments may appear.
