Close
A cool, balanced 2021 vintage gave us grapes with fresh acidity and great aromatic potential. Aged in large oak vats and only very lightly filtered, this LBV preserves the intensity and complexity of an aged ruby, while being ready to drink now. It will throw a deposit after a few years in bottle.
Deep, intense ruby.
An alluring bouquet of dark cherries and blue fruits, intense and clear. Ageing in large oak vats adds hints of spice and cocoa, bringing complexity while keeping its lively, fruity character.
Full-bodied and enveloping, with sweetness well balanced by the fresh acidity of the 2021 vintage. Ageing in large oak vats has rounded the tannins, giving a smooth, silky texture. Dark cherries and blue fruits linger with hints of spice into a long, persistent finish.

Viticulture:
2021 was a cooler, more variable year, with moderate temperatures and spells of rain that slowed ripening and extended the harvest. A rainy winter and mild spring replenished soil reserves, and unsettled weather at picking called for careful timing. These conditions encouraged balanced ripening, good acidity and aromatic potential.
Fermentation:
Destemmed grapes, spontaneous fermentation in temperature-controlled lagares and stainless steel tanks. After fortification, two winters in stainless steel for natural clarification. Ageing: 2.5 years in stainless steel and 1.5 years in large French oak vats (100% used wood). Bottled in [month] [year].
