Making Techniques
The grapes are picked by machine at the optimum maturity, early in the morning to avoid oxidization. Cold maceration for 5 days at 2ºC. Two Syrahs with different profiles are blended: one fresh and lively, the other one mature. 30% of the wine is aged for two months in oak barrels of 2 vintages. The remaining 70% is raised in tanks on fine lees.

Awards and/or Press Quotes
Jancis Robinson
15/20. ‘Gamey, dark plums and a bit of tarry smoke. Lots of thick chewy tannins, purple tasting, like char-grilled black figs. Not massively long but it has good presence. Drink now-2019’
