Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Black fruits, Luxardo cherries, pomegranate reduction, sea-salt black licorice, coffee-rubbed steak, caramelized lardons, leather, cardamom, all framed atop a dense, concentrated, broad mouthfeel, deceptively lively, that never feels heavy-handed.
Production Notes
10% whole cluster fermented in small, open-top bins and concrete tanks, spending between 20-40 days on skins, with a combination of pumpovers and punchdowns during cold soak and fermentation. Aged 20 months in neutral 500-liter puncheons and 265-L barriques, 60% of which were new.
