Description:
Surprising, "baronesic". Its 4 months of barrel ageing only taims its power for turning it fruity and flavorful.
More Details:
Vintage
Made at its optimum point of maturity, in the freshness of the night with mechanical harvester to preserve its freshness as much as possible.
Elaboration
Once in the winery, the vintage goes through a grain selection table, and then a soft destemming and crushing.
Fermentation
Alcohol - A cold maceration of 60h. in an inert atmosphere to extract fruity aromatic compounds from the grape. It ferments 14 days at a controlled temperature of 22-24°C, in 17,000L truncated cone tanks.
Malolactic - For 16 days it remains in deposit with its fine lees, making a smooth battonage to increase its volume in the mouth.
Barrels
Raising in French and American oak barrels for 16 weeks.
CATA's notes
Intense violet color with cherry red trim. Fresh nose, with aromas of cherry, plum and light touches of sweet red peppers from Cabernet and Merlot, all wrapped in a subtle background to roasted coffee, coconut, honey and vanilla that denote its smooth passage through French and American oak. The palate is sweet, with a slight final astringency.
