€17.50

100% Cabernet Franc, a low-yield variety, resistant to rot & insect attack, perfect for aging wines. It provides structure, evolutionary potential & great elegance as well as fruit & floral aromas.

Grapes arrive at the winery with total respect for the fruit, without breakage & without exposing them to the sun or high temperatures immediately after being harvested from the vineyards surrounding the winery. Selection of bunches is carried out & only healthy & ripe fruit enters the fermentation tanks.

Cold maceration for 2 weeks, followed by a spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in 6000 liter stainless steel tank (no commercial yeasts were used.) Gently presses & aged for 12 months in new 300 liter French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation takes place naturally & spontaneously. Stabilization is also natural, the wine is in deposits during the coldest months, temperatures can go to minus 15º C.

Cherry color with garnet rim, dark & bright. Nose is floral with lots of berries, vibrant red fruit, complexity, mineral, smooth smoke & a touch of bread dough. Vibrant palate, & well-defined flavor with clean fruit. Fresh but with a good body, with a polished, sweet, subtle and elegant tannins. Long, with a fruity and balsamic aftertaste, which gives it a delicate, dry & structured finish.

Ideal with roasted pork, beef burgers or stew, meatballs in tomato sauce, lamb, goat cheese, camembert, feta, oregano, thyme, rosemary, black lentil, red bean & mushroom. Certified Organic & Vegan.
