One of the few 100% Cabernet Franc wines in the Iberian Peninsula.
It was first planted here as a blending variety. Some years ago, it was decided to vinify it on its own. It was a great success.
Limited production (5,300 bottles).
Vinification
Alcoholic fermentation: 14 days; maceration: 26 days.
The wine is aged for 13 months is Nevers oak barrels (some used, some new).
Storage potential
6-7 years. Somewhat austere in its first two years.
To serve
Serve at 18°C. Decanting is recommended in the first three years.
Trial analysis
Deep colour. Ripe notes of leather and coffee, then, with some more air, gooseberries. A solid structure, sustained by a nice acidity. An elegant Cabernet Franc - far from the greenish paprika style.
