Cellar

The grapes are harvested, then destemmed and crushed. The mash is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks and kept in motion by means of pump-overs. Towards the end of fermentation, pressing is carried out and the wine is partly stored in used barrels made of Leithaberg oak.

Tasting Notes

The wine presents with intense black cherry and dark berries. Black pepper, herbaceous spice and a compact ripe tannin underline the fruity character. This medium-bodied wine is an excellent accompaniment to roasted meats, hearty pasta dishes and hard cheeses when slightly chilled.
