The vineyard boasts a unique old vine cultivation method, resulting in a wine that speaks to the dedication of its producers.

On the nose, expect an enchanting bouquet of roasted aromas, cacao, and forest fruits that draw you in. On the palate, the wine reveals smooth and mature tannins, a testament to the low yields of this old vineyard, delivering a full-bodied and flavorful experience.
