Hand-harvested and fermented in stainless steel tanks with malolactic fermentation, this wine showcases a bright, youthful ruby colour. It offers an inviting cherry perfume, leading to a palate bursting with fresh, ripe cherry pie characteristics. Soft, rounded, and juicy tannins provide a lovely body, culminating in a persistent fruity finish.

Vinification
The grapes were hand harvested, de-stemmed, crushed and pumped to stainless steel tanks. The must was left in contact with the skins for eight days, then fermentation took place at temperatures between 22-28 °C. Malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. Then the wine was transferred in concrete tanks for final filtration and held there until bottling.
