Cuvee from four different vineyards, spontaneous fermentation, small percentage of whole bunch fermentation and 16 months in oak barrels. Mouth full of red fresh fruit, spicy elements and silky texture on the palate with an elegant touch of acidity. Unpretentious, easy to drink, with a purely pleasurable dimension.

The cultivation is certified organic using biodynamic farming techniques. In winemaking 15-20% whole bunches are used and fermentation is with indigenous yeasts. The wine will be aged for 12-14 months...
