- Deep ruby red with garnet reflections. The bouquet is layered and complex, showing ripe berries, plum, cherry jam, and dried figs. On the palate, it is sweet, full-bodied, and harmonious, offering richness and balance that make it perfect for quiet, contemplative moments.
- Late-harvested grapes from 70-year-old vines undergo pre-fermentation maceration for aromatic depth, followed by a 20-day fermentation and maceration with natural yeasts. Malolactic fermentation is completed in stainless steel, and the wine matures for 12 months on fine lees, adding texture and finesse.
- A rare old-vine wine born from late-harvest fruit, combining deep sweetness, complexity, and elegance — an exceptional bottle for after-dinner reflection or a standout addition to any fine wine collection.
Description
Sourced from grapes grown on magnificent 70-year-old vines. Displays a deep ruby red hue with garnet highlights. The bouquet is broad and complex, offering notes of ripe berries, plum, cherry jam, and dried figs. Sweet and full-bodied, ideal for contemplative enjoyment. Produced from a late harvest of overripe grapes, followed by a pre-fermentation maceration to enhance the extraction of signature aromas. Fermentation and maceration extend over approximately 20 days, allowing the natural yeast to convert the high sugar content into alcohol. Malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel, followed by 12 months of aging on fine lees.
