Fermentation and aging 8 months in new American and French oak barrels with periódic Bâtonnage
Tasting notes Yellow colour with metallic reflections. In nose, explosion of tropical fresh fruit, followed bay smoked and toasting notes coming from the aging in cask. Balsamic notes.
Glycerinic entry in mouth, with elegant tannins. In the mouth passage, there appears the acidity that awards lively to wine. Very agreeable persistence with recollections of green fruits and toasted bread.
