Ageing: in stainless steel and oak barrels for six months.
Characteristics: ruby red colour with purple (eggplants skin like) hues. The nose has a distinctive hint of violets and plums. Refreshing in the palate with an intense sensation of cherry and plum; it is not overly tannic yet the acidity cleans the mouth very well.
Food pairings: goes very well with chicken, quail, with most of the first courses but it is an excellent glass on its own as well.
