Made only in the best years, this is 100% Alicante Bouschet, planted on schist soils with a grape by grape selection and foot treading. Aged for 24 months in 500-litre French oak barrels, the wine spends a further nine months in bottle before release. Aromas of spicy black berries with an earthy, balsamic note. Smooth and ripe black fruit palate, with a lingering spicy finish. Big but not brooding; the fine, structured tannins and good freshness show potential for ageing. A great partner for beef or venison dishes.
