Rigorous grape sorting by hand on conveyor belt. The fruits are left to dry under the sun for approximately 14 days. The sundried grapes are pressed and led to barrels for almost a 2-year fermentation, followed by minimum 4-year maturation. The wine has luscious golden-amber color. Layers of aromas and flavors keep revealing such as dry fig, dried nuts, honey, mocha. The sharp acidity adds crispness and beautiful balance to the rich concentration and the textural mouthfeel. Long, persistent aftertaste. The wine produced only on vintages with notable grape production in terms of volume as it takes almost 5 tons of grapes to yield 1 ton of this distinctive wine. Ageing potential unlimited.
