After the grapes are harvested and selected, they are placed in wooden drawers and transferred to special areas that are dry and well aerated. In this way, the grapes wither naturally and thus have an extraordinarily high concentration of sugars, glycerol, and other aromas are obtained after extraction. After 3-5 months, the withered grapes are pressed in January. Due to the low temperature, the process of fermentation is lengthy and slow. The maceration can take up to one month.

Intense ruby.

Elegant and robust, well-bodied wine with a distinct spicy perfume and an unmistakable flavour rich of contrasts.

Dry, stern, vigorous and gentle.

It goes well with game, roast meat, and hearty, flavourful aged cheese.
Without food it is an extraordinary “meditation wine”.
