Second and third week of September. |
Vinification |
After a long period of natural drying in the sun, the grapes are vinified according to the traditional red vinification method, with the fermentation temperature rising from an initial 18°C to a maximum of 28°C. Once two-thirds of the sugars have been consumed, fermentation is interrupted with the aid of low temperature; this results in a wine with residual sugars of around 90 g/litre and an alcohol content of around 12/13% vol. The wine is aged in stainless steel until the spring following the harvest and then proceeded to alcoholisation to bring the actual alcohol content to about 19% vol. |
Ageing |
In large oak casks for at least 5 years. |
Pairing |
It pairs with desserts and chocolate. It is a perfect wine to be enjoyed by itself. |
