Mastio
-
A beautiful rich ruby in colour with elements of ripe fruits on the nose with a hint of red cherry, strawberries almonds and green herbs. A well-balanced combination of elegance and intensity on the palate with soft tannins and a generous aftertaste.

Production Notes - The grapes were hand-harvested with four stages of strict sorting: first, on the vine, then by individual clusters, and then again, grape by grape. The hand selected grapes are then gravity fed directly into the concrete vats. The fermentation and maceration processes take a total of 3 weeks maximising the extraction of character and complexity while keeping the tannins round and supple. After the fermentation stage the wine is drained and then the malolactic fermentation takes place. The wine is then aged in the concrete vats and botte until bottling.
