We make our dry red wine with strong character from the hand sorted grapes grown in the beautiful vineyards stretched on humus carbonate skeletal soils at the height of 350-750 m. VINIFICATION: We pick the selected grapes at 20-22% of sugariness and 6-8 titratable acidity. After removing the stem and de-pressing, fermentation proceeds at a 23-28°C in stainless steel reservoirs. We add the pure culture yeast. Following the 12-15day maceration, we move the wine into 300 l French oak barrels, for 9-12month ageing. The wine is further aged in stainless steel reservoirs. The subsequent ageing takes place in the bottles. ORGANOLEPTICS Color: Dark sour cherry 🍷 Aroma: Very distinct variety-specific aromas, bringing together black fruit and berries, vanilla and black pepper notes. 🍷 Flavor: Ideally balanced strong tannins and high acidity accurately portrays our signature product. 🍷 Taste Wine at 16-148C
