Ageing in stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels of 400 L.
Tasting Notes: Deep garnet colour. Red fruit, raspberry and cherry. mineral touch and appealing spicy notes.
Store and Serve Advices: Ready for drinking now, although it has the ageing potential to develop further in bottle for another two to three years. Will benefit from cellaring for between 6 and 12 months.
