The winemaking process is carried out in granite lagares with foot treading. Fermentation is done at a controlled temperature. Maceration lasts around fifteen days.

Aging
 - Aged for 24 months in new French oak barrels.

Plantation System / Type
 - Vineyard planted in traditional terraces.

Tasting Notes
 - Intense red color with a hint of violet. The aroma is vibrant, focusing on ripe fruit, with subtle notes of jam and a floral touch. The wine has inherited spice and smoky notes from its aging in French oak barrels, which integrate perfectly with the ripe black fruit notes. On the palate, it has an intense flavor where the elegant tannins are very persistent. The particular acidity of this wine, together with its volume, gives it a lasting elegance that characterizes it well. This wine has great aging potential.
