Opus Eximium No 35

The grapes come from 30- to 70-year-old vines and were harvested by hand. Each variety was vinified separately in stainless steel tanks with traditional skin maceration; fermentation was spontaneous. Malolactic fermentation took place in oak casks. The wine then matured for 24 months in small oak casks and, after blending, for a further two months in a large oak cask. The vintage displays deep ruby-garnet colour, blackcurrant preserve, red berries, fine wood spice and herbal notes. On the palate it is dry, juicy and fresh, with fine acidity, an elegant body, pleasantly ripe tannins and a long finish.
