The grapes come from the Agrelo vineyard at an altitude of 950 metres, on alluvial soil with a clay-rich topsoil and rounded stones deeper down; the composition is given as 30 per cent sand, 30 per cent clay and 40 per cent silt. Depending on the vintage, cold maceration lasts three to seven days, followed by approximately 12 to 19 days of fermentation and two to ten days of post-fermentation maceration. The wine is matured in French barriques; for the 2023 vintage, this lasts six to eight months, with 25 to 40 per cent new oak. Expect firm tannins, medium to full body and a smooth, long finish.
