ELABORATION
|
|
Gneis is produced from grapes of Red Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, harvested and selected by hand at the optimum moment of maturity. For vinification, at a controlled temperature of 24 to 26 degrees, the classic techniques (prolonged maceration, “racking and return”, pumping over … ) are employed to produce the perfect combination of polyphenols and polysaccharides, that in addition to the aromas are the elements that give the wine its complex structure.
Aged for 14 months in barrels of lightly toasted French Allier oak, with a maximum of four vintages per barrel.

TASTING NOTES
|
|
Very intense cherry color. Aromas that evoke memories of compotes (very ripe fruits, not pacified), concentrated, intense notes of toast and mineral. In the mouth it is very meaty, with dry tannins of new wood, and of ripe fruit and plum compote. Original character and very mediterranean. Very elegant, with great potential for aging in the bottle.
