Tasting notes
Dark colour. 2008 was the first vintage to be produced in our new wine-making facilities. The nose presents notes of black fruit, liquorice and tobacco. This is a complex wine that offers both power and finesse. Elegant and velvety on the palate.
Vintage 2008
2008 was a late vintage with classic ripening conditions. Meticulous work in the vineyard enabled an exceptional expression of late varieties, such as Cabernet Sauvignon. The cool, breezy weather during the summer of 2008 gave the vintage freshness and liveliness. While the particularly dry second half of September brought concentration and aromatic complexity. 2018-2035
