Open-fermented, with extended maceration post-fermentation before being basket pressed; matured for 18 months in new French and Bulgarian oak. Deep, healthy colour; the varietal expression overwhelms any regional impact, making this an impressive wine; the use of 100% new oak has been fully justified. A long life ahead from a great vintage
