A wine, produced by classical method under controlled fermentation process. A well balanced and full body. A blueberry scent.
We are sourcing our Grapes from the north region where the conditions are extremely favorable for cultivating grape varieties. The relief is hilly, 160-180 m above the sea level, with brown soils and carbonate humus. They are warm, well ventilated and slightly granulated. The average temperature during the period of vegetation is about 36 - 37 C, which along with the long and warm autumn provide the best conditions for sugar accumulation in the presence of high total acidity and pH 3.0-3.2. The average annual rainfall is about 530-540 litres a square meter, and it determines sufficient humidity.
Tasting notes: The nose is packed with fruit – cherry, plum and blackberry. On the palate the wine is smooth and rounded, ripe and juicy and leads to an elegant finish.
Winemaking: Harvesting in mid-October, the grapes are gently crushed. In the process of fermentation the wine-makers control at twelve-hour intervals the extraction of color and tannins from the skins, as well as the evolution of taste, in order to decide when to drain the ferment-off-skins. Following classic fermentation, extraction is performed by pumping over the cap. Alternatively, if fermentation takes place in rotary fermentation vessels, accelerating the skin contact is done by means of rotating the tank. The wine ferments with the pomace until the transformation of sugar into alcohol is complete.
