Made from Lacrima grapes raisinated in a drying loft and matured in glass-lined cement vats. A distinct ruby color with a slightly garnet but not opaque edge. The bouquet has notes from raisinating (sour cherry) as well as those of the varietal (green peppercorn and moss) together with the estate’s trademark of bitter herbs. The attack of the mouthfeel is soft but not rounded and the texture is medium with a very fruity palate and tannins that stretch out well without being excessively bitter but a tad monotonous. Try this with Asian cuisine or goulash.
