Beef, Game (deer, venison), Poultry

A cold dry winter, followed by a mild, dry spring and cooler than average summer created perfect conditions for the development of small berries and highly concentrated wines.

the wine spent a total of 22 months in new and 2nd fill French oak barrels.

The grapes were harvested at 25°B. First cold soaked and then inoculated. Fermented at 26 - 28°C for about 5 days. Pumped over 3 times daily during alcoholic fermentation. Malolactic fermentation was completed in tanks
