Harvested by hand, fermentation with indigenous yeast in wooden vats. Aged for 24 months in casks made from selected oak. The wood is sourced in a proportion of 80% French oak and 20% oak from America. Before bottling the wine is fined using fresh egg whites. It is then left to refine in the cellar for a minimum of 12 months before release for sale.
This 2019 Reserva wine has a bright, ruby-red color, with medium depth and a garnet tinged rim. On the nose it proves to be a wine which is complex in aroma, in which primary aromas of fruit such as blueberries are enhanced by spicy nuances. On the palate it is long, balanced and elegant, with perfectly integrated acidity and smooth tannins. The finish is very long and fruity. Perfect to be drunk now, but thanks to its great balance and structure, it can be kept in the bottle for several more years.
