Delicate and elegant, this wine is full of complex aromatic nuances, including balsamic notes of wild berries with a slight tobacco accent.
Tasting Notes
Wine with a subtle, balsamic aroma, in which notes of forest berries with the addition of light tobacco shades are clearly manifested. The taste is elegant and balanced, with a harmonious combination of acidity and softness. Wine has a light body and completes the tasting with a soft but persistent finish.
Vineyards
The vineyards are located at an altitude of 400 to 600 meters above sea level, which allows grapes to develop in conditions of a large temperature difference between day and night, which contributes to better ripening and preservation of acidity. The soils of the vineyards are mostly granite, with large stone protrusions, which also influences the characteristics of the wine, giving it a characteristic minerality and complexity. The climate in this region is characterized by hot and dry summers with cold winters, which creates ideal conditions for growing grapes, especially varieties with good acidity, such as Bastardou.
Production Method
50% of grapes are fermented with combs, 50% without them. Fermentation at a controlled temperature of 20 °C to 23 °C for 15 days with short maceration. After fermentation, the wine is poured into oak barrels for further maturation and apple-milk fermentation.
Food Pairing
This wine is perfect for fried fish, meat, and cheeses. Its harmony of taste and aroma goes well with a variety of dishes, while its ease allows it to be used as an accompaniment to more delicate snacks.
Wine is not just a drink — it is a whole experience. Its taste is influenced by serving temperature, the glass, aeration, and even how you take your first sip.
The right serving temperature is one of the key factors. Red wines 14–18°C, white wines 8–12°C, sparkling wines 6–8°C.
The best choice is a tulip-shaped glass (350–450 ml) with a narrowed top. Always hold the glass by the stem to avoid warming the wine.
