Vinification
After a strict sorting in the vineyards, the fruit is partially de-stemmed and vatted. Gradual pumping overs and cap punching are carried out to ensure optimum extraction of the juices whilst long vatting periods impart a delicate tannic structure.
Ageing
Aged for 12 months in French oak tuns followed by 8 months in concrete vats before being left to rest in the bottle for a further 18 months
Tasting notes
This wine has now reached optimum maturity and reveals the ultimate expression of its terroir with notes of scrubland herbs, black olive, roasted fig and a medley of spices. The warmth of the rolled pebble soils has imparted a remarkably powerful palate balanced out by the safer soils which bring depth and elegance to the blend.
Food and wine pairing
The 2010 vintage will make the perfect partner for a roast haunch of wild boar in a cranberry sauce served with a duo of mashed potato and sweet potato. Also makes the ideal choice for a slow roast leg of lamb or lamb shank.
Service advice
Between 15 and 16°C. This wine will flourish as soon as the bottle is opened but should not be left open for too long as its aromas could fade quickly.
Cellaring potential
The 2010 is drinking beautifully at the moment.
