Spirit
Exceptional vintages for exceptional years.
Grape variety
100% Malbec
Average age of the vineyard: 30 to 50 years.
Double leaf-removal on both sides to promote light exposure and aeration of the fruit, and controlled yields thanks to green harvesting.
Terroir and climate
Only on Mindel from the early Quaternary of the 3rd or high terraces of the Lot. Density: 5000 vines/ha.
winemaking
Machine-harvested grapes, sorted on a table and 100% destemmed, with long maceration (around 30 days) and temperature control.
Extraction by punching down the cap (pigeage) twice a day until a density of 1050, then once a day until 1010.
breeding
Malolactic fermentation in barrels, followed by approximately 20 months of aging in the same 300-liter oak barrels.
Tasting
Expression and harmony characterize this deep-colored wine, whose complex nose evokes blackcurrant, spices and toast. Its powerful and fleshy palate reveals a lot of sweetness, proof of the perfect mastery of oak aging. Aromas of black fruits, licorice and cocoa confirm the high expression of this wine.
Alcohol content: 14.5%
Tips
Decant (or uncork several hours) before tasting and serve at around 15° or 16° C.
