FARMING: Lutte Raisonnée

VINIFICATION: Grapes are hand-harvested and pneumatically pressed. The wine is vatted for 3/4 weeks under temperature control. Aged 12 months in oak barrels before being gravity-clarified, minimally filtered and then bottled.

TASTING NOTES: Deep red colour; its nose has characteristic aromas of red fruits as Morello cherry, blackcurrant and raspberry mixed with spicy notes. Delicate and elegant wine, its palate is refined and supple that gives it a feminine image.
