Product

Merlot is planted on clay-limestone, and Cabernet Sauvignon on clay sands. The average age of the vines is 35 years. Hand harvesting is employed with low yields. Pre-fermentation maceration, gentle pneumatic pressing, and storage in concrete tanks. Two weeks of fermentation at 28°C, and up to three weeks of post-fermentation maceration. Aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, with 33% of the blend in new. Blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, full of attractive acidity and blackberry fruits. Fine tannins which are just now beginning to soften. Ripe flavours and a supple texture, with the added element of oak ageing to give complexity.
