The ferment included 40% whole bunches, which went through semi carbonic maceration before being aged in old oak for 9 months with the wine unfiltered and unfined before bottling.

A light red with youthful hues, the nose gives dark cherry with some stem and iodine alongside cranberry fruit. The wine has generosity and tension with finely tuned acidity. Paired with drying, fine tannins, the piercing black cherry fruit that broadens on the mid palate, before being pulled back with impact of tart cranberry fruit. Excellent length to finish.
