This wine is beautiful garnet red colour with brilliant ruby reflections. The bouquet is broad and nuanced, with scents of wild berries. The flavour is majestic and velvety with richly dried grape tones. A wine for accompanying refined dishes especially prime cuts of meat and very mature cheeses. It can also be enjoyed on its own at the end of a meal.
The grapes for this wine are semi-dried on trays, in well-ventilated rooms, for about 120 days. The must is macerated on the skins for seven to eight days and vinification ensues at a low temperature. Fermentation is long and slow, lasting from four to six weeks. The wine then matures in 30hectoliter (660 gallon) Slavonian oak barrels for two years, and for a further six months in bottle before being released in the market.
91 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Black-skinned berries, violet, tobacco and a whiff of graphite lead the nose on this hearty red. The structured palate offers blackberry jam, star anise and vanilla alongside fine-grained tannins.
