The wine combines Merlot from the Sopraceneri, particularly from Lower Leventina and Riviera, with Syrah from Balavaud, Vétroz, Chamoson and Fully in the Central Valais. The Merlot underwent two weeks of skin fermentation at 28 °C and, after malolactic fermentation, was matured for 18 months in Burgundy barrels; the Syrah received ten days of cold maceration, followed by 20 days of fermentation and 20 months of barrel ageing. The nose shows dark berries, black pepper and light toasted and menthol notes. On the palate, it is fresh, structured and balanced, with ripe, sweet tannins.
