LUÍ

CABERNET SAUVIGNON
SIZE 0.75 l.
ALCOHOL CONTENT 15.5% vol
VINIFICATION

50% of the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are partially dried. After a slow fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature between 22-26°C for 40 days, a short maceration on the skins takes place.

 

Once malolactic fermentation has been completed, the wine is aged for 12 months in used French oak barrels.

TASTING NOTES

Rich, fleshy and complex on the palate with layers of dark fruit. The use of barrels creates notes on the nose of vanilla bourbon, very sweet but delicate – baba’ cream and mascarpone notes with rum, almonds, officinal herbs, dry vegetables, hay.

 

Very soft and velvety tannins mouthfeel and aftertaste of coconut, vanilla, dried fruit with a very long finish and light smoky notes.
