Fermentation and post-fermentation maceration, with controlled temperatures ranging between 25ºC and 28ºC, in small vats. Throughout the fermentation process, pump-overs and delestage are carried out to keep the solid and liquid phases in contact for greater extraction and concentration. Natural malolactic fermentation. Then aged for 6 months to amalgamate and balance aromas and structure.
Intense red color, with violet hues. The nose highlights the perfume of ripe red fruits and jams, especially plum. Elegant and enveloping on the palate, with a long finish.
Good companion to typical Argentinean grilled meats, stuffed pastas and mature cheeses.
