2017, Selection vintage
Rainy vintage during winter, with morning frost at the begining of spring and a moderate sunlight during summer. Despite that, the estate produced a quality wine in keeping with the consistency that we have had for 20 years. A beautiful wine, mixing classicism and modernity in its extraction.
The nose exhale intense black and juicy fruit. Beautiful fresh finale.
Ideal served between 16°C and 19°C, with fine charcuterie, grilled or roasted meat and a selection of cheeses. Open 1 hour before serving.
