Fermented in open fermenters for 10 days then transferred into barrels. Aged for 12 months in 300-liter hogsheads in French and American oak. Approximately 10% new. This densely compact wine is woven with a fine tannic thread, dutiful oak supports and bright acidity, giving form to a parade of black fruit, coffee, bitter chocolate and currant. Liquorice all sorts and violet, too. A wine that struts a warm climate generosity without straying into excess, while priming the heady fruit flavours with a maritime salinity.
Serve at 16-18 °C with grilled beef ribs, fried game, hard cheeses - Parmigiano, Gruyere or Manchego.
