Harvesting is 70% manual and 30% machine.
Vinification: The ageing of 12 months is made exclusively in the 1.000 French barrels of 225 L., of which 25% are renewed each year.
The wine is fined with egg whites and finally bottled at the vineyard 20 months after it is harvested.
Tasting Notes: Offers a dark, plush feel, with roasted fig and warm currant preserves notes flowing over dark tobacco and bittersweet cocoa flavors, followed by a solid, tarry-edged finish
