Vinification
Soft crushing is followed by cold maceration for about 24 hours at 10°C. After the soft pressing, the must is left to decant for 36 hours, before being poured and fermented at a controlled temperature of 18°C. The wine rests on the fine lees for a couple of months before bottling. It follows a short refinement in the bottle.
Tasting notes
The color is bright cherry pink. The nose presents elegant aromas of fresh red fruit (raspberry, wild strawberries, pomegranate, cherry) and subtle floral nuances in a delicately spiced background. The palate is fresh, savory and persistent with minerality and lingering hint of almond

Food pairing
Ideal with fish soups, grilled fish, spaghetti with tomato and basil, charcuterie, roasted white meats and medium-aged cheeses. Perfect pairings with cumin or spicy dishes, thanks to a good acidity and soft tannins. Great as an aperitif
