양조 : Composed of two rooms with stainless steel tanks adapted to the size of each vineyard parcel, the vinification room is where the maceration and alcoholic fermentation take place. The must is first cooled and the juice is left in contact with the skins in order to extract their rich color and aromas, then warmed before the alcoholic fermentation and final maceration take place. The Malolactic Fermentation occurs spontaneously, immediately before or just after the wine is drained off by gravity into new French oak barrels. The skins and seeds are pushed into basket presses and lightly pressed to extract the press wine, which is added in small proportions to the final blend.18 Months, New French Oak

[Tasting note]

한없이 부드럽고 풍부하다... 그러나 그게 전부다

짙은 루비색의 와인으로 향은 풍부하게 느껴진다. 가장 우선 피망향이 진득하게 느껴지고 모과, 까시스, 블루베리의 달큰한 검은과일이 주를 이룬다. 입에서는 엄청나게 풍부하고 크리하며 무거운 바디를 보여주지만, 산도가 받쳐주지 못해 질리는 느낌을 준다. 다만 치즈버거와 페어링을 하였더니 1+1=3의 효과로 환상적인 매칭이였다.

It's amazingly soft and rich... but that's all

It is a dark ruby wine with a rich aroma. At first, the note of bell peppers is strong, and sweet black fruits such as quince, cassis, and blueberries make the core. At the palate, it shows a very rich, creamy and full body, but the acidity doesn't support the fat & rich wine so it is quite boring for me. However, when paired with a cheeseburger, it was a fantastic match.
