| Viticulture practice: |
Trellised to a height of 2.4 meter.
Green dropping to
ensure even ripeness. Yield control by water shortage
management. The irrigation control also ensures a small
berry with concentrated flavours. Springtime pruning.
|
| Vinification Details:
|
Only healthy optimum ripened, hand
harvested
grapes were selected. Our gravity system ensures
the least damage to the pips and skins, thus ensuring
a
soft, approachable tannin structure.
|
| Wood ageing:
|
12 Months in French (80%) and American
(20%) oak
barrels.

| Winemakers Comments:
|
A dense, deep ruby-red wine with
a lovely ripe fruit
bouquet with a nice spicy, mulberry palate. Soft
approachable tannin structure.
